JJT036 Posted April 3, 2009 Author Report Share Posted April 3, 2009 (edited) (Your dad must have some kind of master plan with this car haha. First he gets it for free for you and is now organised to get it painted! Make sure you put it in his head that it's YOURS! :y:) Damn, Dad said you guys are onto him LOL. He just loves cars and wants to make mine a good one besides it doesnt have 8 pistons so I'm safe.

JJT036 Posted April 25, 2009 Author Report Share Posted April 25, 2009 (edited) Well just an update from the last time i posted, So far we've taken out the seats because the ones i had were ripped and torn, Plus i need to get really good overrated condition seats that will last. Today just after 12.00, we put the car in the garage and we started looking at the car underneath it. This is what we found, Edited April 25, 2009 by ewt Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JJT036 Posted April 25, 2009 Author Report Share Posted April 25, 2009 Just after 7.00, Dad and i just finished what we had to out of the other few jobs we have to do. Part of under the seat had rust on it and the seat holder thing closest to the gearbox wasn't attached properly. These are the after shots of one area under the car.
