    Anyhoo, it got delayed. Should be being picked up this friday.
    Well, there you have it. I guess being in a business where international shipping is something you deal with regularly, you'd have the resources to make something like that happen. Pretty awesome that something that size in the UK can be in the States over a weekend! Waiting for the updates...:)

      So the car's been stripped and is half naked in the paint booth.

      Here are some of the shots from the booth with the rust cut out and repaired.






      A fair bit of crud collected in that window crevasse.. gotta get that out of there!

      And finally, body kit will be here next week after much arguing with my shipping company.

                  Sorry I've been out of town for a few days, plus the holidays have made things a little hectic.

                  Unfortunately when the body kit arrived we found out it was a fake. A fiberglass reproduction. I have attempted to contact the seller but he is not getting back to me.

                  Quite disappointing to say the least...

                  Oh well, the search continues.
