Re: Hi from England

Thanks guys for the welcome,
Getting it down a bit will be the first job, Got to get a front bumper and grille ,it rammed a ford KA (i don't know whether you have those in the USA) and the top tail gate needs a load of work or replacing, the trouble is there are hardly any here so i'll have to import one or make one.

Re: Hi from England

Hello to the colonies ! Thanks for the offer ! getting parts will be the hardest thing ,I'm guessing that there are probably less than 10 here in England , (unless they're all hidden!) I've had a look at the pics on here and there are some really cool burbs !
Just found a pic that was emailed to me and added it as my Avatar
