I thought this car had already been built, how come you've stripped it back down
I remember offering to buy it when I was back from Qatar like 2 years ago. What's changed.

It was close to being finished but a house move and new business premises both needing renovation became the priority.
I have only stripped the undercarriage which was on the list of to dos and the front bumpers gone off for some alterations.

It means you've had more time to save as " I only deal in cash "  :signLOL:

Storm Developments are / have built the engine from the crank up. Fully forged internals, KMS management, Clutchmasters and all built around a Garret Gt of some kind. More info in next month or so as things change daily with this build  :grin:


Currently at my unit frantically trying to complete a customers job as I have 2 rather large car related parcels to open

So, so close now. Audio done apart from a few bits of flocking left. Hand brake all complete. Finish bleeding brakes to be done. Front bumper should go to paint this weekend. Interior all put together including my free mats from VW :) just need to remove rear discs and sand blast and paint centres. Looking pretty Ganster apparently

Just needs a good clean all over
