Some of you may remember my mates raider got reversed into by a lorry...(followed by mine later on in the week!)
Well to cut a long story short the company he got through to are claiming the lorry isnt theres, he couldnt be arsed to wait so he bort this shell from bob and wev been puting his engine in last night and tonight, anyone recognise its shell? Wasnt really my thing when i first saw it as prefer the standard look, but its grown on me.

yer ino its how it all came. Thought id post it up as someone must have seen this at somepoint
The colours funny, its not really a yellow, more of a orange, does look nice in person
A standard grey or black kit on that would look the nuts
will look :cool: m8.
good luck with the project :agree:

I reckon just the rear diffuser bit in black and that would look good
if you dont mind me asking, how much does a solid looking shell like that fetch you back off bob.
He was selling one (can't remember if it was that one) on ebay, with all the kit, for about £700 I think.
seems a reasonable price if its solid enough i guess.

heres some better pics, shows the colour better
Its all in and running now, just a drivers seat for the moment. Full shell without engine, and with just a dash no interior or clocks just the basic dash was i think 550, but it has got a crack in rear bootlid, crackd front screen. But its obviously had some money spent on it as its solid underneath and the paintwork on it is good, full respray even the inside has been sprayed nice.

Oh no, deffinately not that one. The yellow Ali G car was down K-Tec last time I saw it in a very sorry state. That was about 2 years ago now.

Thankyou Oliver.
They scrapped it.
It's amazing how quickly a car can go down hill if not looked after :(

They scrapped it.
They sold it to a customer for a tidy sum, he drove it into the ground they brought it back for very little, then robbed all the good bits and then scrapped it.

First post!

Had a VERY similar lorry incident happen to me. He drove past me parked car and took out the side.. I was lucky to be by the car at the time and stopped the driver, he gave false details but i took a camera phone picture and the number plate.. went through my insurance, company that had the lorry said it wasn't theirs...
2years later the insurance got their money.. so it's worth putting in a claim,,don't let them get away with it
