driftwood has a lot of promise if they can keep it on the circuit!
Mate race cars are like girlfriends
you like them then fall in love then spend money on buying house etc
next thing you know yr goolies on the line and no cheap way out
consider your self lucky to have only 1 woman in your life and 2 cars it could be worse
I have 10 cars but managed to keep it at only 1 woman ( why would you really go and have 2 thats TWICE the agro!!)

paint job at 2k is what i would expect to get quoted
i can get sports car done for a bit less than 2k
i have paid £1k for my car but it looks good but is not hard baked/laquered enough and chips easily willget 1 season running from it

slicks you cant get away from the cost as you need em

£3k for injection well you have to weigh up the cost versus performance gain

I can save you a lot of grief and bid you 6k for the car!!
