Gracie goes to the trimmers on the 29th so we keep getting phone calls for little bits that he finds that he needs Emma & Rob at amazon cars keep having to send him little parcels - it will soon be your turn keep the pictures coming

yeah they know there stuff at amazon cars,bought a pair of door hinges from them,so gracie is going to the trimmers soon!
no expense spared on your estate! cant fault yer! i also have a ford capri as another toy,so ive been putting most of my time into that at the moment,and forgetting about the amazon for the time being as i cant do anything with it whilst its having all the fabrication work done,although ive sourced a radio blanking plate for the dash that im going to paint to match,also got a really good pair of second hand wings waiting to go on when i get it back. looking forward to seeing some updated pics of your new interior! |

Pez wasn't planning on the expense of our resto for Gracie and could not have afforded it if had not lost a parent . All our other classics were kept on the road and used and to be honest the amount we've spent in the last 10 years or so is not too dissimilar to what we're spending now on a car that should last us 20 plus years .

It's worth learning and welding isn't hard if you learn the basics first and anyone can do it.
