Well you'll just have to wait and see, im sure there will be a few pics posted after tuedays foray.

It's a bit of a public outing for its first run so hoping it all goes well.

Taking all bets...

(that's why I think Mike will do fine, that and his lack of imagination). :roll: :lol:

To be fair Scotty, other than some stick on bling I have put on the outside to jazz it up a bit, this one takes all credits itself for looking so good. Everything I have done to it has been under the skin and not really anything to be seen as such. She came in a runner but wasn't suitable to use, horrible even. I have converted it from an auto to manual, new wheels and suspension and a host of other bits in order to get her to run as she should. There are a few things left to do but she can be run up now so will do that stuff over the winter months.

I really hope she isnt too loud, what is oulton 105db?

I'll post a piccy up later tonight when I load the trailer.

In the mean time this is from running her up last week on the dyno to make sure she didn't want to explode. Only 20 miles on the engine and no one knew what was on the ecu cal. Should be fun -
