Excellent... was speaking to Steve ( Betsy) today actually today and wondered what you been up to, also as i needed a front passenger wing due to my step father (being helpful as i been unwell) popped over saw i had just taken the wing off for repair and offered to weld it for me... all good you think... well turns out not as he welded the lip and the other bits but pulled the arch in subsequently leaving me with a wing that didnt fit anymore 3/4 inch gap by bottom of door !!.... so i had to get another and now havee to repair and paint that one lol
I am sure Steve would be up for a 165 meetand Camera Bob when he's back from his travels......GREAT idea
(may get i touch about front fog lights and the grill inbetween,, i decided i like them at last lol... i have the wiring already there )  8)

Cheers Wiggy ... would be handy to know even if i do go UK route eventually like i hope..... also why at Steves i added a front strut brace :)

Too true.. i am in process of doing my front wing and having to change it from JDM to Uk so by JAE hopefully it will be done !!

but back on track of main thread

Very nice indeed... like the wheels and suit the red 165 in black especially with the white writing on them as breaks up the black a bit ( all black ones i didnt think suited my white one )
Yeah.. make it to JAE .. .keep miine company .. it was lonely last year on its own.. yes you can show mine up.. she's not proud lol

Looking good matey!

we may just scrape 10 165's in one place, not including Bretts collection!

Found a novel and easy way of removing the engine out of my spares 165, not me in the pic by the way!
