So, after a year and a bit, the fasty is out the garage again :mrgreen:

Image

Spoke to Dirk last night, he'll be coming out sometime in this week to check out the fasty's wiring. I'll also start up my engine on his bench - just so that I know the motor is okay before we put it into the car.

Feeling very excited. We are almost there :twisted:

So, Dirk came to have a look at the car last night. Gave me a price. I'm happy with the price. Told him to go ahead with it.

He'll be doing the car at my place next week Saturday. I'm super stoked!! Can't wait to get it done :D :D :D

(I should have called him months ago, the figure that he told me was way less than I was expecting :oops: )

We are in the final phase now!!! :mrgreen:

Well, guys, i had a very interesting phone conversation with a fellow forum member earlier this evening, the outcome of which could delay the progress of the fasty a bit. It all depends on what i decide. It's a very tempting deal, but at this stage, i'm very undecided what to do. Will have to sleep on it a bit... :?

If you're going to say it's the 411 coupe, I'm going to be sooooooooooo jealous!
