It's been a while since my last post...

After a lot off offers from guys wanting to purchase the vehicle as is... with the damaged rear end. I've realized that maybe she might still have some appeal. So Ive decided that a complete make over is on the cards to bring the car back from the dead.

So last weekend the prep started and man its a lot of work but feeling excitedImageImageImageImage
