Just had the buggy tuned, timing checked and carbs balanced now runs and sounds like a beast from the gates of hell.

(in a good way)

Sorted out rear wing width and shaped,  fitted new rear lights, drilled out roof poppers, prepped up and painted  took photos for agreed valuation.















god i hate bodywork it still needs a good polish with compound but that can wait for now.
