due to the prices of about £4700 insurance :pissed: 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 :pissed:
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 :weld: exhaust

ill make sure to get some pictures :snap: tomorrow and upload on here and you lot can see the little progress ive done :hahaha: :suzuki:

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! :popcorn:
