so taken it to a bodyshop and ask them to check it out! i was so gutted but i knew i would get her fixed up! they wanted me to get the parts to keep the cost down so they wanted a front panel tenshion arms, bumper carrier, smic, sub frame and a few other parts, so of i went got all my parts cost me a arm and leg just ever a grand :slap: then they started to arse me around and i had a big kick off :devil:

so i taken it to my body shop at work and they said i only needed bonnet catch,bumper carrier and fan cowling i was so pissed i ended up throing most of the parts in the bin. set the car down in mum and dads front garden and started putting new parts on. and i was getting shafted by my insurace every month by nearly £200 was only 21. :screwy::screwy::spank:

got a front bumper and prayed it in a booth looked well nice :yum: didnt bother with the bumper iron so i made my own! :boogy:

then i thought take the car off the road for a while and spend the saving on the car but that never happened this did :guiness::guiness::guiness::guiness: and i came to sences and thought buy a shed for the road and use the skyline for the track and maybe get another for the road in the future! so of i set to make it in to a track car yyyeeeaaahhhh! :devil:

first thing i wanted to do was strip it completely and i think the hardest part was the sound deadening in the freezzzzing cold of winter the heat gun came in handy and lot of :smoker:
