[STREET TWEAKS]

Well got most of the the boot floor cut out just needsa little more work to get the new to fit rigth , the back valants just pulled off by hand not been welded on rigth at all but is still in good order so if so one needs one let me know and thay can have it as i have a new one . the biggest prob i had was cuting out around the sub frame mounts but got it looking good i think , needs sum work round the hing panel for the boot as there is rust hole comin so i will be cutting that out next , i think i can get away with just putting a new plate in and makeing a new lip .
