Went downt the bodyshop earlier to see if the dash was at least half sprayed and not a drop of paint on it
He said he could possibly get it ready for tomorrow night and tehn try get the rest of the dash bits and door builds done HOPEFULLY in time
So i just havnt got enough time to finish for PVS
Am gutted as after the shite weekend at Donny i thought this was gonna be a good weekend with a complete car, but not to be
People like Joff and Vibrio can GTF with their 'would anybody notice or care comments'
It matters alot to me
Will still come up with me old man for the sunday and will look out for a few familiar faces and a few new ones

I aint taking the car, it just looks shite at the mo, no interior is just about barable but its also really high at the back without the weight in it
B19 GAV: It would of been fine if the guy had sprayed the dash earlier its just that that has made it impossible and i dont wanna be in a position were i have to rush soooo much i make mistakes
Gonna get it all up together and do everything proper and exactly how i want it

No-one's saying don't go, but why miss out on a day at the show just because your car isn't ready?? You can always park it up in the carpark if you're that bothered someone might make a comment about your car.
Even when it's "finished" people will pick faults with it.

Painz: There was still a slim chance it would be ready but like i said i know i would be soooo tierd and rushed something would of gone wrong, and id rather get it perfect
Getting black alcantara on all doorcards pillars and seats but seats with some grey alcantara and also roof lining but only in a roof lining material not alcantara as bit pricey, all in all will be about £1700
B19 GAV: Would have been done in time yeh if the dash was done but its not really thr guys fault as he was doing it in his spare time not through business and it was just really bad timing all round really
