Title: Another AC, 1 LEG
Post by: Fraz13 on November 06, 2016, 06:17:08 PM

I have just brought home another AC.

This is the infamous 1 LEG in lovely Gulf colours.

This is in very similar condition to the way my other was when I brought it home, definitely needing a body restoration. It starts and drives but has no papers. The problem I am facing is do I restore it original? Restore it in its current colour scheme to keep it as a fun car? Or do what the mrs says and move it on as I'm not allowed a second one lol

Dilemma!!!

Restore it back to original using a rolling chassis that does have paperwork - just transfer the body.

Now where could you get a good and running rolling chassis with all paperwork in order?  :)

Or just give it to me for a couple of pints.

Keep the fun orange sections as is, but scrap the silver sections for a repair and repaint to the original light blue for a better looking match of both AC's and period correct Gulf colors.
