   Thats my old car!!

really? when did you have it?
I built it from a £600 wreck in 1994, used it until about 99/2000 as a daily driver, then totally stripped it and built it into what you sort of have today. I still have a ton of history for the car inc a full photo rebuild album aswell as all the trophies i won with it inc a nice `best of show` one from bug jam 2003. Its changed a bit since i sold it though after its crash and all that!! I should not have sold it really, i used to enjoy the odd spin in it with slicks and it had alot of sentimental value to me .
