  1. Hi everyone, as promised I have put my ARC induction box up for sale as its no longer required.

    I purchased this about a year ago. These are as rare as rocking horse poo.

    It is in good condition, there are a few scratches on the box, overall I would say 8/10.

    Thanks for looking.

  2. I would like to thank you all for your kind words for my dad, especially Bennett who has been there at this very difficult time.

    Looking forward to getting my car back and on the road, it's been a long time coming but will be worth it.

    Thanks for taking the time to read my post and for all your positive comments.

  5. Well it's finally happening it's been a long journey and heart ache along the way.

    My dad has recently been diagnosed with pancreas cancer so I wanted something to look forward to and to show him the finished item.

     

    For now the outside is finished and how I want it, but I guess as we all know having a Z it could change.

    So then I thought what else can I do. Well after speaking to Bennett Gt4 I was sold and he got to order me some goodies.

     

    They arrived after a while in a box.
