ok, so i realised that the final pics rarely do justice to the project so here are a few more that tell
you more bout the blood,sweet and tears (some of joy others not,lol)
This was phase1, had to "humble" it by bringing it down to earth just a little and then later just a little more..
Despite it seeming asif its in asome condition it needed some work in a few minor areas such as the bootlid, the rear valance
and the driverside corner post.
The first panelbeater messed us round for 6months and we paid him 3k for this,thanx, but dragged it away in time for him not to have made a completed cockup of everything..luckily.
This is a pic of us carting alles away to panelbeater "B"
as u can see he was ALOT more organised..
Oh but b4 that it got the good old RAT-treatment that was round bout 2006 when not many people knew much bout the look,needless
to say i got my fair share of skeef kyke
Amongst the shiny bits n bobs we bought 4 the car, the 1s we couldnt buy we sent off for an acid bath and an electro-plate!
This was the treatment for EACH n EVERY bolt, nut, washer, spring, clip and and basically anything we cud fit in the load!
