Nothing like a positive approach :lol: Surely if they do a poor job you can take it straight back anyway!! Looking forward to the pics. Have you been stripping it down for the last couple of years then??

Good times Steamy. I can well believe how excited you are. Nice one.

Not quite lol. I've been stripping down and repairing or replacing bits, lncluding the engine and a manual conversion, installed racelogic traction control and a few other upgrades. Basically I worked out the I've done about a 95% strip down and rebuild. It's been a long trip. lol

Nice one mate a new coat for Winter:thumbup:remember plenty of pic's

Don't worry mate, I'll get loads up when it's back :)
