I've priced up the bits and pieces from midday, 12,745 for nearly everything. And I've found some half cuts around the 3k mark. All tools and what not If I don't have them I can source them from other mates.

That's a bit of a shame, I thought that was plenty of time. SO a better goal would be Christmas next year.

When I say mug chanic I have some knowledge and can work my way around a car, I just generally do things he hardest way possible and then back track.

Thanks or your advice Loosekid
