lol...might be a good thing as the bodywork aint the best lol

no rust tho...so thats a start!!

JK

good :) i want to do some top rust protection early on, its the mistake i made on my car.

ohh and i might put in a full roll cage!! ohh i have so many ideas and such little pay :(
 
lol @ goldstar...

yeah i wanted a full cage too... tbh it prob needs it if ur keeping the seats out of the back...could probably help to stiffen the chassis a little...and maybe consider a rear strutbrace too.

All things i wanted to do...but i need to get my business of the ground now...or try @ least! I'm jusglad the cars goin to a good home, and a fellow micra nut! - im sure goldstar is too

:D i'll do you proud mate, don't worry :)

but it will probably sit in a garage for a while until i have some more cash lol
 
I know how u feel bud...

theres so much that can still be done...but im happy u have pretty much the same plans and that i can keep tabs on it! will give u a nudge towards end of the month fella...and let u know the arrangements.

I assume ur getting the train up - or part way up?! Coz if so you need to arrange ya ticket in advance for it to be cheaper?!
