    :D Hiya mate - what Skyline do you have - would be top of my wish list - as far as parts go - there seems to plenty of options around for most stuff and certainly enough helpful people on here to point you in the right direction! :D Go for it you wont regret it p.s. 2's are the best!!

    welcome to the club mate.

    main thing to look for is rust on these cars, rear arches are prime targets, mechanically parts are still avaliable, although reno like u to pay a premium for the advantage of owning a williams.


    go for the best bodywork u can find, evrything else is easily replaced/renewed

    Luckily, theres no rust on this car, but there are signs that the sills have been done in the past, do u know a good way of preventing rust, so that it dosent come bk?

    Thanks for reply,
    Luke.
