Only death can stop this
Looking good Mark, Absinth Yellow is one of my favourite colours. I'm still waiting for someone to do a Walkinshaw GrpA replica in Absinth

Ah crap, looks like im stuck with the bug then ! And yeah I reaaly love this colour always wanted a yellow VL but no way I could afford a genuine, so I made my own walky idea sounds tuff as too ! - Tony.G wrote:

Yeah man she was pretty damn rough when I picked her up, but she was on bags in the ass so that was a major selling point thats why it was so low in all the photos, but they'll be going in my other car | |

| For those of you who I dont have on FB I have a few updates! Theres now something inbetween the strut towers and it looks quite good there even if I do say so myself. Next up is to rewire this stupid fuse box and put the 5 speed back in! [You must be registered and logged in to see this image.] | |

| That would have to be the best detailed/painted engine I've seen in a VL, subtle, but has an impact on the retina's you can't miss. Can't wait to see this one in the flesh. | |
