lol gutted. That gauge panel would look sweet.

Whats the time scale you have for the rebuild?

Not really got an idea on the price that they'd go for to be honest, best to look on ebay yourself and see how much they are going for?

Any bit extra money helps lol

well im going to be riding to work (bicycle) when its being done so ide like to get it done asap. but it aint going to be easy with the crappy tools that i have. plus my uncle is supposed to be helping (he's a mechanic) so it depends on whats he is doing during the weekends.

lol it's horrible without a car.

I have to ride too, to get to my garage.

It'll take a lot longer than you think if you're only working on it at weekends - Thats the only time I can work on mine.

Bit of advice - you can never have enough tools. No matter how many different sizes, lengths, settings, types of tools you have, you will always find you'll need more especially doing a job like you're doing.

If you ever need to borrow any tools, I'm sure I can lend you some of mine. I've built up quite a collection now lol
