It's still early stages as it hasn't had TFR bath yet, which usually doubles the value of a barn find !
Good work fella.

Who parks an m3 up and leaves it nearly a decade, crazy.
Looks ok after a wash. New scuttle new wing, any other holes found yet Steve?

No probably not, well not yet anyway, but I definitely want to grab an s14 incase I do want to go back to standard at any point, S85 was actually my next choice. which will happen when I've saved enough!

it's plastered with ML stickers and reams of ML History Baz the old geezer bought it from them 12 years ago,
I'm fairly sure that's' where it "lost" the 16's
they also did the cam chain ...

I'm not one to miss a golden opportunity to lower the tone with mentions of Harvest Gold BL scrap.

I must have had 20 pm's from zoners hoping I had got it cheap so that they could buy it cheap !
the fact is with the internet it's not hard for anyone to find out the value of these cars, including the guy I got it from,
I paid what I think is the going rate for one in this condition, a bit more than what top end sports are listed for on ebay !

He exchanged some flowers on Mothers Day for it.
Bloke was distraught that he forgot it was the special day...
