Thanks guys

I'm over the moon but the wife is less than pleased. Sort of forgot to tell her the nice little beetle that I was collecting was a full on drag car  Grin Cheesy

I post up some photos for you 30 / 40 something, summer of love kids

The car has a real nice feeling, just got a lovely patina / history about it  Cool

Nice one! Now I just wish someone would rescue 'No Mercy' and paint it the way she used to be – not the multi-coloured mess it is now (as it sits festering in a lock-up…).  Angry

Wouldn't mind having getting hold of No Mercy myself . That would be kinda cool to get both of these car's down this neck of the wood's sharing a work shop for a while .
Now how would i convince the Mrs , anyone fancy a half welded 68 RHD rab project  Wink
