This car was originally poo brown, I got it with an stt turbo kit on the 617.

It was running for a bit on a basic spec 605/5speed.

Recently it was stripped to bare metal, and resprayed 'stealth grey'

Now I am in the buildup process, currently at sound deadening stage, to be fitted is an om605/6 speed gearbox with an aftermarket gt series turbo and bigger elements in the diesel pump.

Hope you enjoy the pics.

This is how the car looks now, coming together slowly. Banded 7.5" wide steels are fitted.
