Ok guys I know this is a big shock!! But there has recently been a death in the family and i have come to realise there are more important things in life than just cars... So if there is anyone who is seriously interested in the car feel free to PM me but if i get aload of **** people after the bargin of there life or who dosnt have the money till next week etc i wont reply to you... The car runs but not drivable yet, still needs a tune to run properly and power steering hooked up witch i am in the process of ordering.

That's all i got atm... A mate of mine said he will get me the hose for the power steering when he has time to go to there shop, and i am waiting on STOWLN to get back to me with postage details for the mounting of the fuse box but he is extremely busy so not sure when that will be done. i will not be getting a tune but was quoted $500 for a tune plus microtech witch a member had one for $800 (http://s146.photobucket.com/albums/r241/kidmavric/vlct/?action=view¤t=05122010292.jpg) (http://s146.photobucket.com/albums/r241/kidmavric/vlct/?action=view¤t=PA210132-1.jpg) Some original photos have not been recovered yet.
