Thanks dub64, it really is a nice car, clean and simple. Hate 2b selling it but it has to go due to lack of room.

Bump, Bump!

This car has to go, if you are interested but unsure of something, call me and we can discuss eg. wheels, rear guards, ride height.

Has anyone checked how much it costs to even build an engine these days? Let alone the cost of paint, interior, wiring, labour.

I'm selling this car at half the price of all the parts on it guys, lets find it a good home.

C'mon people, I would hate to put it in the Post and sell it to some punk that will lose interest after 6 months and let it slide into obscurity.
