Yeah suppose but I would be more disappointed not having something to drive at all.
Plus TVL is just because I have it, didn't really buy it for that. In fact bidding was a bit of an accident really, didn't ever think he would go for it.

If you let Rich H loose on that and removed some microns of paint it would be immaculate.
Love it.

Yeah I was going to get his advice on how best to fix that paint up.
CD player still works perfectly as well. Needed a bulb in the display but otherwise bon.

Yeah he's had the sump off so I would guess had a look inside before diagnosing it.

Yeah still got it, bare shell which is at the back of the garage, parts are all stored away upstairs. Plan is roughly to finish the truck and stop spending money on that, then when that is done send the white shell off for cleaning up and a re-paint and take it from there.

A raffle to win a GSi
I would rather lose by a mile because i built my own car, than win by an inch because someone else built it for me.
