Just had a read :unibrow:

All good, apart from the Paintwork section

'Either pick an obscure colour like craig did or go for a satin finish - it requires less prep work'

Talking out of there arse me thinks lol

I get very touchy on that subject :lol: haha

Tbh theres quite a few daft littlw bits like that, almost like they thought ooo theres a gap lets fill it with tosh.

And theres a few bits that are wrong, even though i told him all those details, like hes put ime using an afh gearbox, but ime not its the original 1ltr box and he thinks I've got balloon tyres 205/60? Wtf is that all about :s

    Well i made a start this morning! First i pulled all the original engine bay loom/fusebox and compared it to the g40 loom so that i could lable everything up for future reference. The eagle eyed

Another late night... Knackered!

Another early start tomorrow... It's gonna be a case of putting the polish down and jumping in and delivering it 8-)

I'm as excited as you!

FFFFFFFUUUUUUCK.

Sorry it didn't get delivered today mate... By chris' own admission it's a fucking good paint job! It'll be worth the extra wait to make sure it's polished up right, and sorry i didn't make yours today- hectic day trying to get the polo right then had family over before they dissapear back off to australia! Not enough hours in the day...
