But thanks for your nice comment
I’m not a fan of the subjectivism in regards to people loosely using “build” as bolting on a bunch of parts. When I think of “built” or build I’m talking removing the engine and rebuilding it internally or a cage or some significant modifications that defy that of just replacing parts that use basic hand tools to accomplish. Elitist? Maybe but it’s more about the truth not the blatant use of builds for bolt ons. Just seeing if you or anyone could genuinely define the difference that’s all or ignore me I’ll ask elsewhere.

Unless I missed something he posted in the Members car journal section and never one called it a build.

Apologies for being a bit quiet here. I bought another Project Car in January (SW20 MR2) and that took a bit of my time so the GR86 was sitting around Most of Feb/March. Then April happened with Crazy Weather (one week 15-20° Sunshine, next week -2° snow) so it actually just now starts to get better Weather wise.

Anyways, I took Wingo out today to take some pictures, however its still rather cold and my passion to take pictures in cold weather is not that high :-) In 2-3 Weeks time tho the first Alps Mountain passes will open and I can finally take the car to where it belongs (and will post more pictures then aswell)

For now I hope you enjoy the quick update:
