Looks nice.
I know it's not technically original but I do like the bonded body kit. _________________ "A fine example of how not to build a car..."

Hi everyone. Yes, sadly its up for sale bless its heart!
Im in the process of looking to buy another toy and I simply dont
have the space, also it doesnt get driven.
Its by no means perfect, but hopefully should reach the reserve ive set.
The bodykit is indeed bonded on, but in the five or so years its been on the car, no rust has appeared, whereas I imagine if I had self tapped it on, it would be crusty!
Needless to say, if it doesnt reach the reserve I will be keeping it and all these bits will get done, but we will see. _________________ a dying breed always needs saviours, we are astra saviours, simple as that. |

Ha, yes it went for more than I was expecting to be honest! The strange thing is, the bloke who bought it didnt even see the car! He bidded on it, and sent a transport firm from CARLISLE to get it!
I only hope he is happy with it, not that theres much wrong with it!
I suspect he might join on here, so keep your eyes peeled! _________________ a dying breed always needs saviours, we are astra saviours, simple as that. |
