Ok, I'm now taking over this WIP as Davey sold both Ludes to me.

First up, he's done some staggering work which is gonne make my life so much easier. Anyway, heres the motor as she dtands atm.

Theres only one side light and indicater in it because im trying to decide weather or not to delete them completely. Heres a pic of the painted up bay.

The plan is to get it built up, have the paintwork detailed and painted where it needs it, I want to make my own twin pipe and dual back boxed exhaust, do a little smoothing and deleting (washer jets, fuel filler cap and badges), get a decent set of skirts and someyhing for the back bumper and finish it off with a set of BBS RC style wheels. C&C welcome.

Davey bought them back as I dont really have enough insight into them yet to complete the build properly but I am looking for a finished item at present or even something complete so I know what came from where.
