[Jammy]

Well get off the verge, into the garage and decide what your going to do!!

Id say get the engine in the car and running then think about turboing after,
when you know how much space you have.

i agree with ed4ran. Get the engine in see how you like it and then contemplate with the turbz idea?!

Paintshop on base mate, costin a couple hundered and a slab of beer!

All i have to do is buy my own paint. Unless i want it Harrier Gray, or that horrible grean that the landrovers and fuel bowsers are.

Suppose i could always have a DPM mini!

[Pie]

DPM! DPM! DPM! DPM!

What colour is it going??

[Bounce]

Mate, i look at DPM every working day of my life, i dont want it in my private life aswell!

I dont know about a colour yet, only got some ideas.

[Mandgands]

Go on, get Harrier Grey, at least it would be individual.

Couple of hundred isnt too bad, is that including prep work or are you doing that?

[Bounce]

All im doing it stripping the mini and giving him the shell, doors and bonnet
