Nice one, SRB one does look good. Think that is the next mod for my one. Treat it since the indicators and front lip were stolen !

I gave everything to the guy I sold it too sorry :(
When I got her she was on about 90k and it was an elderly couple had it from new.
She was really clean apart from a small piece of rust on the rear arch.

well the car only had 102k now! the guy who had it before bought it for spares and wrecked it, im the 4th owner (if i remember rightly) it was covered in dents/no shockies and the paint work was all scratched and had been attacked with rattle cans, makes me sick seeing that picture as if i had got it when it was like that i would have no need to paint it! :( still a VERY clean car though, shame to think i bought it off someone as it was on its way to get scrapped!

The guy I sold it to said he was going to do this and that to it. Wish I hadn't sold it to him now :(
It had yellow koni suspension all round.
I'm glad you saved her from the crusher :) looking so good now!

VERY glad you've brought it back to life.
Sad to see someone could have taken that and ruined it.

It's inspiring to see that you have the dedication to bring it back from the brink !!
