the mont now only has a dash

so far most parts are for sale, as long as i don't need to put them back into my car, so the door trims and trims are staying but the carpet and seats are up for grabs and so is all the type R apline gear

You are utterly hopeless at keeping your car in one piece for any period of time. "Yeah nah, I'm just gonna bloody put this in and then drive it for a while"...yeah, I see how well that's working out for you... How long till the white one, which was just going to be a "s**t kicker" has a quadruple supercharged V16??? Just kidding man 8-)

Hi mate

Long time no speak how things going you can never sit still can you. Anyway how do you find the brakes? Are they a direct bolt on or do you need to mod uprights.

Cheers

Steve
