Hes a Murray, very little goes past us even if we don't have a faster car lol. Ah I haven't spoken to him in a while, didn't know he would be building it back up, like I said will be great to see it back out again. Hope it goes well for you!

Lol I even hate anyone passing me in Tescos lol

What all needs done before the Honda is in for the engine removal? Are you going to get the interior sorted and all first in the E30?

Seeing it as a shell more or less that you bought it in, would it not been worth the effort to strip it off even more and send the car to have the bottom blasted then nicely painted up again and built up nice and fresh, ?

Hope it all comes together :grinning:
