Very nice mate, looking forward to see it finished, well done
|
Hopefully very soon
Cheers |
The end is in sight aye Lee,well done mate.
Whats the spend count up to now then fella? |
Il have to sit down Ryan and work it all out but I'm sure I could have bought a nice M3 on a late plate but something I've always wanted to do and we know we only live once .
Decals have been tweaked today and are going on on Monday so keep watching for pics early next week. Got a little run to stoke soon to see PPG gearbox I have bought then on the look out for a CDB for the start of a nice engine build then the car will be complete but that's later this year going to enjoy what I have got a few weekends away with the boys to sample a few tracks. |

When I have mine done I'll join you for a track day mate for sure:thumb: |
Just worked it out and it frightened me so far without gearbox at 2.5k I've spent a little over 14k including the price of the car.

Soon mounts up Lee,my missus would hang me by my balls if I ever counted it all up and she could see the amount:eek::D
