NAH mate, either getting Lee Mitchell to do it, or a place in Dover. Problem with Lee Mitchell is getting the engine/car to him. Gonna cost me £40 to get it to Dover or about £100 to Lee.

you're welcome to have a look at it. I will be getting it taken to Lee's or place in Dover soon. If it goes to Lee's, you're welcome to go see it if ya want. If it goes to Dover, I'll let you know and when I go up there with my car, you can come up and have a look at it then. (then give me a lift home once i leave my car in the hands of the experts )

Ive had loans and finance before. £1000 for the bodywork, £580 21st b'day pressie for sis, £590 for ma wheels. Wheeld not paid off yet, why i dont wanna get a loan till ive paid the wheels one off. If i pay that, then get a loan for the engine. I'm quite good with controlling my spending, perhaps I should become an accountant!

I want TB's, but not yet! wanna get it all in and running 1st! Then sort my ICE and tidy up a few little bits and pieces i wanna get done.
