There are probably some other bits, not checked it all yet. I was planning to remedy all these bits this year, but I'm too busy with work, and I need to finish my extension [started around ten years ago] hence the sale.The car was built with track in mind and is mostly rose jointed, so is a tad harsh and loud.It started out standard arched, but unfortunately I had an incident with some tyres at Lydden, and damaged rear quarter and drivers door. I had a new panel fitted last year, and bubbled it for wider tyres.I'm after £8500 may part exchange with a medium sized van up to around £3/4000 or something interestinglink to build thread http://www.turbosport.co.uk/showthre...hlight=andygfc Link to for sale thread on turbosport for more pics! http://www.turbosport.co.uk/showthread.php?t=459470
