    Default project sil80

    well folks this aint a project as such more like a progression. As ya's no i had been saving up for a slider and initially was going to spend bout 1500 on a tramp just to have bit of fun in, but havin seen jay flip his cam in mondello two months ago i began to reconsider the tramp option and sway more towards a less rough car..

    i haven a great history when comes to crashes sure i've had more fuckin hits than the Bee Gee's so i wanted a car with a cage and knew my 1500 budget would do so i saved bit longer with the idea of finding maybe a 180 or s14 road car with half cage at the very least..

    but haven spoken to wez a few weeks ago he broke costs down to me and told me to hold out get more money together which is wat i did..

    so this leads me to the last few days, wez told me he had this and havin looked at wat it had etc i knew it was the sensible option..

    SO BIG BIG THANKS TO WEZ for all his advice and guidance and for givin me a great deal....

    well here it is 99.9% of ya's no the car

    Feck seems to be a decent spec if you got it for in or around that budget, just get in and go, good luck with it,

    just seen the pics with no stickers, makes some difference!!
