himesh Posted July 9, 2013 Share Posted July 9, 2013 Hey all Joining today after seeing one of the members randomly asking about a rear seat! Name is Himesh and I'm usually a Vauxhall guy (boo me if you want ), have a VXR Astra (on the right). Last year one of my really good friends Yogesh unfortunately lost his battle with leukaemia and I made a promise to him to finish his car as he never got a chance to! He has so many parts in his room and I haven't brought myself to go into his room yet but to see what he got but I'm guessing it's some good stuff and a TD04. He didn't stop buying parts when he was in hospital as he always thought he was going to pull through. Saw his dad again today and he wants to spray it purple as that was his favourite colour. Will persuade him to get a bare shell respray so might as well hold off the mods until that is done! Car still needs to be transferred into his dad's name and a fresh MOT too as it's SORN at the minute. Not sure what else to write really but I'll keep posted on what's happening.

Phil Posted July 10, 2013 Share Posted July 10, 2013 Fantastic, just reading Yogis build thread and knowing he isnt around anymore really makes you think. lifes short for many, long for some, but either way there is an opportunity for something worthwhile to be done. good to hear your coming alongside your mates dreams to make them happen. hope you get all the parts/support yous need throughout the project. would be nice for you to update the original build thread as you go, would be a fitting tribute.
