Pete-H 66 Posted September 29, 2014 The engine does run smooth as with the rest of the engine bay it needs a good clean. Will you be keeping the car in the original colour? Pete-H Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Crayford MK4 10 Posted March 9, 2015 been a long time since I updated this the body worker has started taking the mick he's been paid but has not finished my car and keeps saying i'l do it, i'l do it but that's all I keep hearing is the same crap every time been a year now some so called Friends hey, now need to take the car to another bodyshop in a few weeks time because if it does not get done this year it will never get done I'm so upset, so little left on it and he's taking the mick, I've had straight talks with him well theirs so much you can take until you loose it I told him screw it the guy next door to him is going to do it, when the car arrives their I will tell him sort him out what I've paid you to do as even if he says he will do it I'm not giving it to him as he might do a shabby job Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
btboy 29 Posted March 9, 2015 That's bad news. Can u get your car back without too much hassle? These things test your motivation. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Ghiahead 6 Posted March 9, 2015 That is really bad news mate. I can imagine it is really frustrating. Sometimes cutting your losses and taking the car back is the only way to keep your sanity. Good luck fella.. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
