RED C5 (no 2)
« on: 16, November, 2011 - 20:34:15 »
Hi I see the forum is a little quiet so I decided to show my latest  C5 ...

The last one I restored was a red C5 which sold on EBay...

But the under bidder was upset that he hadn't won it , the next thing was he  contacted me asking if I could make another one exactly the same I agreed and you can see how far I have got with it ...
