due to the prices of about £4700 insurance
my project was up for sale and a lad was due to pick her up on Saturday or Sunday I really didn't want to sell it ive got nearly double the amount in it as what I was going to let in go for I don't know what I was thinking I was just really pissed off at the time to think I had put all the time in to it and money and the quote came back at that I was gutted
so I was sat deep in thought on the Thursday night and decided I couldn't let the poor girl go so I got in touch with my mate Ricky-410 the one im holding fully responsible for letting me go through with this stupid idea lol
so update:
she's going back in the garage tomorrow to be completed bits to finish her as followed ;
bleed brakes all round. take it for spin and see how rear callipers handle.
fit fuel tank in the rear and plumb it all up.
finish mounting the home-made bumper.
wire brake/fog light, indicators and side light
mount the front arches
finish
exhaust
ill make sure to get some pictures
tomorrow and upload on here and you lot can see the little progress ive done

Eating grass with the horses yes! But letting you sell your anus for a polo was nothing to do with me! me and many others said you shouldn't sell it!
good luck tomorrow, I'd try and help but I don't fancy silage for tea!
