  • The Custom

    A big thanks to Dave who has built my new engine!
    We've spent friday,sat,sunday fitting engine, tension strut kit and roll cage at daves unit and can honestly say i couldn't have done it without his knowledge, patience and attention to detail!(and f**kin hard graft)
    Many of dave's little mods have all added to the car and i'm over the moon with the work!
    All this goes with my power steering (gay, but awsome) and possible new livery!
    Thanks again Dave, had a great weekend!
    If you need any work done , get out your wallet and speak to Dave for a "custom" built engine lol
