Most likely the spray painter/panel beater, as he still owes me.

And it will be easier to get him to do the car, rather than get the cash if you know what I mean!!

Hey Tricky,

I'm having withdrawal symptoms, I need an update on the cat! Even though I know probably not much has been happening.

Hi Mate,

How you doing. I hope Xmas was a hoot for you and your family, and Santa was kind.

I should have something newsworthy later this week/early next week.

Apologies for the delay, but Barbie and the new project have eaten up most of my time.

Cheers,
Tricky

Hey Tricky

When do you think you will have everything sorted cause The Mini Muster will be at the end of august next year and it would be good to see Qik Bricks have a bit of a group display ( you might have to get JC to pull his finger out :lol: )

Can't wait to see these cars in the flesh

The plan will go something like this:
1. Modify the bodykit and affix it permanently to the shell
2. Drill and mount nutserts for the seat brackets
3. Reshape roof spoiler and permanently affix (jury still out on this!)
4. Drill holes and mount inserts for the rear parcel board, mid-bass enclosure, sub-woofer board
5. Fabricate new Mk III subframe (as my original MK I was donated to the brown ute)
6. Fabricate TD04L manifold
7. Make sure I/C piping and route is OK
8. Fabricate water spray container (boot mounted)
9. Fabricate cold air-box and ram-air system
10. Alter brake and clutch pedals to fit around starlet column
11. Fnalise dash design and fabricate. test fit and mounting holes
12. Send shell back to Spray Painters to be completely finished

I have given myself four weeks to get all this done!

And, then the fun starts after it is delivered back to me - assembly time!!!

Cheers,
Tricky
