About the pictures:
I forgot to mention that i bought a project car for it. It is the white one
that you can see on the pics. It's body was all rusty so i decided to save
the stuff i need and take the rest apart.
I know i messed up the restoration order, but i had no experience and i
didn't get any advice. I hope i'll be carefull enough to not scratching it.
I HOPE!
thanx for all the advice
Gellert
