You just be allergic to that make of spray tan! My wife does beauty treatments on the side. I have been known to spray tan her, but for some reason she won't let me spray tan her clients

DAMMIT !!!!
I was quiet but now I can let you know what I missed out on ...
Been offered a 1974 GTV 2000 shell and there were also parts and panels available for me to buy.
So went last night with the owner up to the warehouse where he had it stored outside
Last seen there about a month ago, we went driving into the mud to get there, only to find out that it had been scrapped

the guy who built it, now has an Mgb,cobra kit car he's finishing off and building a gt40 , so he doesn't need it anymore
