still going well mate, like the dials they are good at that place, u go any more pics

[mini-man-dan]

Not a lot of progress at the mo, so no more pics. Should have pics of it resprayed by the end of the week, and hopefully the wheels once they've been refurbed. Here they are at the moment:

The 2 nearest look like 10x5's in the pics, but they are definately all 10x6's! Can't believe I managed to find a decent set

EDIT: I lie! I never uploaded the pics of the bed once I'd ground it all down. Here we are:

looking good mate what insurance did you get those quotes of as im looking at putting a 1275 in mine thanks ross

[mini-man-dan]

It was either Adrian Flux or Footman James, can't remember which now.

And I've got my new (well old...) wheels 10x6 Cosmics FTW! They'll get a full refurb and spruce up so should look lovely.

I must check out those insurance companies, i got quoted £1715 for a standard car with an unmodified 998.

Or 2300 for the equivalent of a cooper!

Madness!

Did think about selling the Cosmics and going for some 15 inchers!:





Need a new filler neck surround if anyone's got one handy. The bit that attaches to the rear wing and goes around the neck.

> Do you really think I'm that stupid!
It's a joke, was done as a joke and will stay as a joke. Still think it looks pretty cool, looks like an RC car
