thanks buck .. who are you nyway ?? cant remem !!! :) I wount be putting any kit on this . as the shell is sold .. as I was strippn it down more and more .. I was coming across little bitns rust here and there .. so I said no goin doin this once and building it properly , and it was buging me that it was wasn't jap !!! I know daft but that's just how it was .. so put up a wanted add for a shell thinking I wouldn't get what im after .. but to my surprize I did .. a jap 14a shell complete enough with few nice bits .. shell needs bit work as whoever painted was useless .. the ole fella do better job with the roller .. so I have ta go and collect that .. this weekend hopefully and tear in that ... ill get pics up when its home ..

No wount paddy .. Give me shout there cupla days should be getting that yolk this weekend

Shit buzz about the shell being rusty hopefully the new shell is a good'un and you get to build a good solid car for yourself! Atleast you'll know what you have then and from stripping this you will remember where bits go etc!
