Ok guys,

My car needs major work, the rings are bad in number 4 and the turbo is shot to shit, it comes down this:

Well this is where the project starts because from today the Staz is not on the road and everything is being stripped out of it and I am rebuilding the rally motor and putting it in.

I realize that I have stated about stuff i am going to buy off people and such but the truth is that i just can't buy things when all my money is going into this rebuild.

Wantsom please contact me via mobile please as I need to organise some stuff. (0407897526)

Thanks for everyones patience.

Don't cut corners Ben. Built it right the first time and it will last. Take your time with it.

Thanks Guys,
Starting tomorrow it will be stripped of its interior and made sure no rust etc.

Then I have to grab those doors off wantsom and the exhaust manifold without cracks if he still has it

Then it is a slow but rewarding road ahead i guess.

Later on i will have to throw one of those rollcages in it hey cooks :)

Goto Bond Roll Cages.. they do top work. They now have a kit which will fit a Starion.. and I could even help you fit if need be.

They are top blokes there too.

The 2 grey doors have now been sold pending inspection. Didnt sound like you wanted them and I had an interested party in the wings. If it falls over I will let you know.
I only have the white drivers door for sale.

Cheers
