    Well thanks to eBay time wasters I won the car and didn't bid a thing, if I can get a trailer I'll be picking it up in the next few days, should be doing some fun transplant shenanigans soon!

    I posted the link, I agreed to honour the end of bidding price, I thought it was fair enough.

    But it depends whether I can get a trailer ofcourse, hopefully I won't let the seller down too, I'm quite confident I'll have it home soon though, can't wait to have a little more go than a leaky old 1108 haha

    okay so i got this home bit of a state bodywise with an obvious old scrape down the left and dodgy paint here and there but mechanically it's sound, runs nicely, bit funny on idle but theres a long time to sort that!
    stripped most of the interior out and chucked it straight into my 55 for now, gonna need some help off people who know this car a bit more than me to put it in my shell though!


    the day after i got them back, had to faff around with batteries as the gt has a naffed pos cable and wont crank without a screwdriver in it.



    in the garden, where she will see her last days!


    gt3 interior into my M reg.. including carpet, good nosey at the shell while it's all up, looking good so far, sound deadening stayed so obviously not a proper thorough look but there was literally nothing worrying at all!
