Bit more than just a paint job :wink:
It has a new owner who has done quite a bit of work to it. like custom air box, opened up the exhaust changed the blow off valve (you can actually hear it sneeze now :lol: ).
And just before Ahuroa he gave it a new 6 point tig welded cage some new race seats a new hand formed alloy roof a new set of silverstones and clear polycarb doors :lol:
Next on the list is a rear mounted winch and custom alloy fuel tank. He won't be doing to much more to it after that as it actually belongs to his 4 year old son :roll: :lol:
