Glad to see you got the car home alright! Have to say did wonder if I had done the right thing when saw you taking it away. To be fair I just wasn't really using it and the money will pay for a few upgrades on the TVR!! At least it has gone to a good home though. Will look great with the bodykit on mate!!

Craig, i can assure you, she couldn`t have gone to a better home- Rob does treat his cars with a lot of affection and attention that sometimes i wish i was one of them!  ;D
I suppose she`ll be almost done in about 3weeks time.
It`s going to be a twin sister to my goldie ;)

Hi mate. Car looks fantastic! You have made a brilliant job of the bodywork. Looking at it now makes me wish I had kept it and done it up like that!! Never mind glad to see it went to a good home and the money bought me a few goodies for the TVR !! All the best, Craig.
