It was looking spectacular my friend! Love the seats, really oldschool!
That caddy that was there is from my end of the world, it came pinning past us on the way home!
Hope you had a good show, and talk about location for yours, wow!

small update

ive been smoothing out some small issues and tidying the car up one of which was fitting a new battery box in the rear





ive decided i need to go a little lower and todo this i need my front wheels to tuck so im changing the front brakes

at the moment the wilwood calipers need big spacers for the wheels to clear so im changing them

the adapters and discs arrived the other day

Fitted the g60 front brakes haven't tried them yet just hope they perform ok after having the wilwoods fitted
at least now i can run without the need of a large spacer
