finally found a tuscan for a project
it is still in full race trim fire system and all
the car was last raced about3 or four years ago and has just sat for the rest of the time
started to strip it down tonight but i think putting it back together as a nice track day cum road car car will take some time
i think it may be a old cdl car but i am not sure

tuscan has just gone to the body shop for some fibre glass repairs
i did all the stuff that could not be seen but thought it may be best to let them do the outside body work
cant decide wheather to have the car back in primer and test fit it all up or to get it sprayed then carefully build it up
also cant decide on a colour porsche iris blue or bmw beraritz blue are the first choice
any ideas
thanks
