I wont be using her as an everyday car as i would need a bank loan each month to keep her going on fuel lol hopefully next year she be ready for the shows again. ll post up pic of her current condition later

Best of luck, and hope to see this one on the road again. Lets see some pics of how she's looking just now for comparison. Edited by grantfk10, 4 Jul 2009, 11:12 PM.

Lets see some pics of how she's looking just now for comparison. surprisingly shes not that bad Grant its mainly the over fueling problem and the rear bushes that are letting her down. there is the wee spot of rust here and there on it but nothing major she just really needs some cash spent on her which lets be honest the previous owner wasn't willing to do im sure Rick will have a few pics up soon that we got today and well get more once shes moved
