Title: Rebuilt GT................
Post by: Macmania on July 02, 2011, 12:52 PM

Ok, so some of you may remember this GT that I built up 12 months ago (Black and Gold). Well.......I was never 100% happy with her  :-\ so she was stripped and has been sat on my self ever since.
Leap forward a few months and after a bit of tinkering i'm finally happy with the result. Hope you like her  :)

Another stunner Nath , but you knew i loved it when i saw it a few weeks back   :4_17_5:

Love the tweeks but for me the addition of the skinny Black wheels and tyre combo is a winner , love those on the expert frameset  8)

Sleek.... i like that word. When i 1st saw this i was thinking....class, tidy, fresh but although they work sleek really bangs the nail on the head. :daumenhoch: :smitten: :coolsmiley: :coolsmiley:
