tommy2ltr Posted August 18, 2008 Report Posted August 18, 2008 my 2.8i capri never saw any shows last year , when i brought her she was really rough, so with a big wod of cash and three long hard months my bro (the painter and finisher) my dad (the one with all the patients) and myself, restored her back to beautie. she was only back on the road 6 weeks whilest driving home from work a TRACTOR decided that he was turning acrss the road into his farm regardless to weather anyone was actually travelling past or not. guess who won i walked away fine, just bloody stiff and hart broken. after about a year of soliciter letters and phone calls the tractor driver admitted he was in the wrong and i got a nice pay out, some of which paid for the scort woop woop never got her featured but really wanted to thank my bro and dad (who half way through the build cut his finger off!!!!!!!!!!! and carryied on working) HERO!! for all of there hard work. i couldnt have done it without you THANK YOU!!!
