Re: Errrr !
Err yes. A lot of interest and bidding too! Replace the shell with an uncut one from LB and you have an instant V8.

Re: Errrr !
My thoughts exactly, replace the body because alot of money has been spent here, and a a great deal of time. New wheels... dynomat... suspension etc etc , lots of dosh so it could be a good buy. 1 hour to go, Im not brave enough.

Re: Errrr !
£1431, cheap for a project but wont make any money when done in its cuurent guise. 10 out of 10 for effort though by the p.o. I can only imagine how many hours have gone into it.
