GULLWING STARION would be freaking awesome!!! :o :drool:

I wonder how much would it cost (as a ball-park figure)?? :roll:

http://a187a.hp.infoseek.co.jp/gull2.htm This Gullwing Staz has the same wheels as mine!!

I must admit, I'm definitely tempted....
I spoke to Simon today and at a ball-park figure $8k to $12k for all the metalwork etc to convert it to a Gullwing.

If the auto widey doesn't sell, I might just consider it! I wonder what dramas there are with engineering the new doors???
Anyway, if I come across that bridge, I'll closely look into it!

I spoke to him about the engineering of them and he said no problem.
Note: His suicide doors are all ADR Approved.

Your Auto Wide is the perfect candidate! :drool:

* Intercooler and pipework done.
* New airbox added
* New BOV plumbed in

* Waiting on alloy panel to come back from anodising. The panel is to fill in the space around the bonet catch.

* Also getting battery relocated to the boot and tidying the under bonnet wiring.

Come down Saturday to the workshop (9am on) as I'll be working on it.
