It has been quite a long time since I have made an update. This car…. where to start? Well basically the car is a dream come to reality at this point. I couldnt be happier with the way shes running. Dead reliable. She pulls like a raped ape. AFR’s are perfect. There’s no mechanical issues with the car what-so-ever. The only issue with the car is a bit of rust.
