No real updates at this stage. The car is in getting complied and blueslipped at the moment and will be let loose on the roads shortly

Other than the engine, the car is nothing special... I'd go as far as to say it is a bit rough...

but thats half the charm of it... Nobody will suspect a thing! :D

Might rice up the sil80 a bit with some fibreglass, since it needs a new guard anyway

It didn't cost me much as I had most of the parts lying around anyway. If you have to buy all the parts but can do all the labour yourself, i'd budget about 4.5-5k (assuming you pay about 3k for front cut)

I have done it on an S12 too.

It's not to hard on a S12, have a look on www.club-s12.org, there is a bit of info about it in their forum.
