    Hey guys been a member awhile and thought its about time i put a project post up so he's my cheap typh.

    plans are to tidy it up atm needs panels fixing and respray new wheels and tires, wiring loom sorted will be a slow project as funds are tight but will update when theres something worth posting.

    Wiring loom was bodged together not a single join soldered, just held together with sellotape. I haven't done alot of wiring before and i even know thats not right, so soldered all the joins heat shrink over them and taped it all up, extended wires for lights and stuff that had been cut short,now all my lights should will work. waiting on more parts then ill be putting panels and everything back on cant wait to wheelie this down the street.
