"The car is 99% complete"

Translation:

"It's a basket case and you'll end up stripping it back to a bare chassis to find out what has been bodged in the past. In 20 years it might see the road again, if you're motivated" ;D

That's why they're called projects Aaron!  ;)  All part of the great British tradition of having a reason to hide from the Mrs in the shed or garage.  ;D

Anyhow, here's a cheap MG BGT!  :y
