thx , to be honest, im not really into the frenchgarlicmeatballcars
I moved last year to a nicer big place/farm... with a big ol shed ( 30mtrs by 20mtrs) so ideal place for a small project, i missed fiddling around with cars etc, so i accidentally stumpled accros this one...
Good base for a nicer project and the deal was made... and here we are..
ive had some serious nice cars previous to this ol thing, and i dont mind driving a 400+ 306 for fun when its ready... but it has to have the looks also... and when i do something i do it right...
thx for the compliments... new updates soon...
cheers

Yet to see a s16/gti6 turbo project completed before it gets sold off for parts, but this looks like it will acutally get there! Great to see someone else doing this and doing it properly. Cant wait to see more pictures and videos! It will be a beast.
