So i have kept this under wraps for like months now ha but i kinda had a crash then been away working in london and only just got round to getting to fix the car only a few people that are on my facebook knew about this and well heres what has been keeping me entertained for the past few days i will let a few pictures do the talking
Before anyone says anything the crash involved only me and was due to my bad driving this thread is not here for you to comment on how i drive but purely to show you what i have been doing if you wanna talk to me bout my driving feel free to pm me  thanks for looking
figured the calipers needed a lick of paint while i was at it and i have my eyes on some peugeot aidel alloys and my new stub axle pins is coming tomorrow so i can start rebuilding it
Lesson here dont crash your car!!!!
