pagey Posted November 4, 2008 Share Posted November 4, 2008 just read thru this fuckin awsome mate Quote Link to post Share on other sites
southwales_tuner Posted November 4, 2008 Share Posted November 4, 2008 Keep with it Lew.Mate, ive had no end of problems with all my cars, half the time im climbing the fuckin walls and feel like pulling my self appart with frustration with them, but by fuck, when its all done, after the hard work and after your hands are cut and scraped to shreds lol, and uve got somthing to show for it and somthing to be proud of which people notice...........then thats when all the problems and worries go away. And then you get to drive it and you think....."ahhh was no problem really".Uve seemed to pull thru though mate.Uve got yours done. chances of mine being done are looking extremely slim, i hadnt realised the meet is this week. i would have said its 80% unlikely to be done in time. If thats the case then, ill be so so gutted words cant describe. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Sparky Posted November 4, 2008 Author Share Posted November 4, 2008 Cheers for the inspiration guys!!If it wasnt for you lot the EP would of been gone along time agoGave her a good wash and polish yesterday and met up with VBoi and MattGlanza and their mate, didnt get no pics thoughWill take some today Rhys, get her ready son!!!
