it needs quite a bit of work and had to be towed back home.
we have stripped the interior and started the work... we have found a friend of a friend to do some welding (which is the main issue) we also have a friend it the car body shop line, to respary it for us (when its finally prep'ed ready).. we also have a friend who is a carpenter ready to build us an interior.. get it ready hopefully for next year if can get ourself in to gear!!
