I like the way that stripe seems to change colour. It's looking really good. How long before you get to drive her?

Re: GT40 Australia #48

Thanks guys, there is still a lot to do: Carpets, seats, lights, upholstery, fire up the motor, fit bits to help with
rego complience etc. All fairly minor but time consuming. [img]/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/frown.gif[/img]
But there is light at the end of the tunnel : [img]/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/cool.gif[/img]

Re: GT40 Australia #48

Pete I have some Ideas for your car-
Fit a Bar - To become known affectionately as Pete's Bar
Fit a DVD Player - To play instructional videos on Foreplay
Set the airhorns to wolf whistle.This is to aid in pulling the blondes behind the bar ( Pete's Bar) of course.
Looking good mate soon you'll feel that V8 throbbing the thighs.
