This project was originally going to be a Street / Strip Old School Taxi (show car) and has had a lot of time and money injected into it. The body has only minimal hours left in it to be finished and ready for paint prep etc, would make a perfect project for someone with a real wild side.

Please check out my other actions, as there may be something else you’re interested in.

Grab a bargain, my loss is your gain!

Please contact me on 0434667343 (Peter) for any further information.
