EK for my mate

Post by Feathers »

Hi guys, I would like you to have a look at the EK my mates wife gave to me to finish for him after he died from cancer in April 2007. The only reason she gave it to me was because she couldn't bring herself to sell it. I had three weeks off over christmas and with a lot of help from my father in law we got the car repaired and painted, there were alot of late nights and early mornings. I'm hoping to have it finished in time for the Victorian 20th Anniversary in Tyabb. Let me know what you think. Cheers[img][img]http://i264.photobucket.com/albums/ii18 ... 0_0625.jpg[/img][/img]

Welcome to the forum Feathers, looks like you have done a nice job on it for her.
Sorry to hear about your mate , this is the second story like this in the last few weeks- maybe owning an FB/EK is bad for your health !
If that is the case - look out Steve,Terry and Mini :shock:
I started with nothing and still have most of it left.
