ever noticed that you have too much g40 related stuff around your house, garage, sitting room bedroom. Its a good job i no longer live with parents.
ha ha yeah..i moved out but left it all at my mothers....i just dont have room for a tailgate a door, wings, a windscreen, rear screen and boxes full of various other stuff!
anythin g you wanna get rid of.. im always on the lookout :D
there will be a shed load of stuff shortly - will post on here
Funny you should mention that Pete, i was just looking through all the stuff when i went back to my mums the other week. She constantly moans about it but hey i can't bare to part with it. i even have 6 Grilles, more indicators an lights than cars its madness.
Oh an a Four branch under my bed as always, one day i must put that on ::)
haha, since I've got my car apart again I've got bits everywhere. Have a set of wheels with tyres on sat behind me in my office room. A cylinder block on the kitchen floor, loads of parts on my dining room table, a turbo, rothe manifold and downpipe and bits and pieces in my bedroom....it's everywhere. Not to mention a garage stuffed full of bits (including the car!).
Hey guys, 'a G40 is for Life not Just for a frantic Ebay purchase!'
Ha ha, yeah stuff everywhere, so far every part I've upgraded or replace then I've kept the reduntant standard part 'Just in Case'. The way I'm going I reckon that it won't be long and I'll be building A G40 from spares(but don't tell the missus).
All the stuff I've got for mine is in it's boot.
Vernier Pulley
Late Spec Lights
SD 7 Point Cage [built currently a clothes rack]
Mk2 Square Headlight Grille + Lights
51mm G40 TB
