Patrick built it (Member off here, nice guy but looks like he's got a bit of downs syndrome) i'm trying to find his project thread but I can't at the minute.

His username is Patrick_g46 or similar.

[Djw John]

Ah stripping tar, always fun

 

[gavt123]

 

[gavt123]

If i remeber correctly you got spanked by this slow looking car mr Still


Yes stripping the tar was exciting lol

 

[mattygreen]

Looks like a candle lit evening for two :rofl:

If only every hour stripping your car = 1bhp :butt:

 

[gavt123]

Been fairly busy today, i removed the anti roll bar cleaned it up abit fitted powerflex outer bushes but had to leave inner as i dont have a clamp to re fit the brackets.

Also thought while im at it i will fit my front avo coilovers and set them up so its abit lower now and looks much better than before.
