Some bright spark has chopped the rear guard out like on mine! Damn!
Still, looks pretty complete!
Get into it people!

I'd get into it if I had the dough. Gotta make more bread! Big fan of the single headlights.

Beautiful. You've got to love when someone so dedicated wins the bidding. Great work, "isabella".
Please give us more as things progress.
Thanks, Matt.

I agree - WOW says it all. Brilliant to think another gt will be resurrected. Again, can't wait to watch the progress - PLEASE keep the photos coming. As a matter of context, are there any images pre-resto? Obviously the ones on ebay have long since expired. Thanks for sharing the images above. Cheers, Paul.

This rebuild is looking just fantastic! There is obviously been a lot of time and effort being put into this GT and i am sure the finished car will reflect that. Just wish i had more time and space to do the same type of thing. Well done guys.

cmon dave if i opened photos of patches to the public then they would know how sick i am? but it hasnt been forgotten.we only have the rust to do in the rear quarter to do and the bit in the roof. i reckon the next four weeks between the completing the marroon car,  as well as this car getting the engine fitted to the the fnq car this week while my car is away. i will be working on the teal cars electrical system hiding the loom and grafting a motec efi system into it.this will keep me occupied for a while even if work leaves me alone. as for what engine we have a parts car here to do dummy fits into and also in my shed is a chev gen3 with a six speed gear box thats all i got to say about that
