and some photos of mine!
since james put up the pics of his 740, i thought i would share mine with you
yes the plate is swedish, and yes its illegal oh, the interior photo was taken before i bought the car the photos of the dash is a bit pants as i took it on my pocket thumb cam, and yes the car is horrendously filthy in the welsh photo, but i actually cleaned it last night for the 3rd time in 5,500 miles plans for her include fixing my now bost drivers heated seat, fixing my broken dash dials, im actually thinking about some wood trim!?!?!?! yes seriously! and i need to finish tinting the back windows, then some lowering, and suspension upgrades, and maybe sticking my twin carbs on theeeeen, its ripping apart everything for a sseeerious overhaul of all the old bushings, shocks, engine mountings, and a full proper valet, of the acutally quite clean interior! |

can you get touch up sticks as i could do with one. The paint is perfect apart from the obvious stone chips on the bonnet, i want to fix these if possible.
