Ebay has a lot to answer to.
when i bought a pair of doors for my mini van ,little did i know i would end up rebuilding an american servicemans clubby estate.
I picked up my doors and got talking as you do,and before long he asked if i could help him with his rebuild.To be honest i thought that would be the last of it.Oh no,and when he turned up with it,I was a little shocked by its condition.part Shot blasted and left in the rain for 18 months.

Shot blasted and left in the rain for 18 months

doesn't sound all that clever

but the end result looks very good

took me best part of a week to D A that roof.LOL.
It was nice and the maserati pearl blue was awesome.
Just a shame it went to texas a couple of months ago.

That carbon fibre bonnet is certainly unique with that colour!

he didn,t wan't it to stand out too much ,hence the dark colour scheme.
took 3 attempts to get a bonnet.They kept arriving broken and he went and fetched it in the end to avoid any misshaps in the post
