escort74 Posted June 10, 2011 Author Share Posted June 10, 2011 Cheers for all the comments I started up another thread with some more photos of the progress, just search up Alan Mann I got the fibreglass arches of trademe so unsure where they are originally from. Was on the look out for an auto shell, a little bit less fabrication work i guess Will keep you guys up to date! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
steve Posted June 11, 2011 Share Posted June 11, 2011 Sweet starting point! Are you going to make it as a track car or just for the road/occasional blat on the track? Also, are you going to keep it original and roll on 13's or go bigger with the wheels? Good luck with your project! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Escorto. Posted March 31, 2013 Share Posted March 31, 2013 Hey mate. Nice project you got going there. Loving the fab work. I was just wondering where you got your fibre guards? And how much you paid. Also do you still have the original guards. And would you sell them? Mine are beyond repair. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
