    I like it. It's an interesting colour combo for a Ph1. Ph1 never came in white originally (aside from the pearl colour).

    i have tried to make it as old school as possible,only modern parts are 3 point harness,it has come a long way since buying it blind off ebay for 300 quid,was a total wreck an everyone said just scrap it but i saved it an it now gets attention every where i go in it.will post more pics asap.
