It has now been stripped to the last bolt, and is being rebuilt with all new parts and engine. Doc bonded in GP2 arches provided by Malcolm Anderson, and it has been painted the correct Electric blue. It will run fat Revolution wheels and other periodic items as we are very much into preparing the cars to their original specs.
