hye mate

how much cost u to rebuild it ?

[Nickh_16]

Ummm well i'm on a budget of around £3000, getting quite close to that now, but most of the things i need i've already got so it shouldn't cost TOO much over 3000....i hope

wow I cant believe ive missed this thread the car looks spot on, kinda wish you had kept her green tho as its not done as much as the red but shes a true stunner tho

[sazal]

Thats lookin brill Nick! How long do you reckon it'll be til shes finished?

[Nickh_16]

Hey guys, thanks for the comments.

Ye a lot of people say that about the colour and i understand where they're coming from, if i was plannjing on selling her in a few years i would have kept her standard...but to be honest i don't plan on selling her for hell of a long time so i thought i'd make her how i wanted her as i'm not too bothered about the drop in value from changing her. I do understand why people like the old colour though, it was very....unique shall we say

Umm well my b-day is in April, so about that time i think/hope! lol

Nick
