hi all, my name is bruce and i am 46, married with a daughter who is 6 and a son who is 2. i have just bought a 93 largo to restore. it needs a new interior and a paint job. i would like to fit a complete highway star interior and dye the blue velour kawasaki green. i want to fit a bodykit to the outside which will also be painted kawasaki green complimented by 18 inch white 5 spoke alloys with kawasaki green edging. at the moment it is a black body with both sides painted white. it is ok for now but not a very good paint job. it is already running on the 18 inch 5 spokes but they are black with a chrome rim. i hope you like my plans and any advice or ideas will be welcome. for a job i am factory supervisor for flying fish hovercrafts who obviously build hovercrafts. my own personal craft is a 3 seater recreational craft which is black and kawasaki green. i think when my largo is finished it will look great towing my hovercraft.

That is the one I saw on gumtree. Did you get it for a decent price. Not sure the owner could make his mind up as the price was up and down like a yo yo :D. Loving the wheels they'd look sweet with the lip in green.

hi, i hope i got it for a descent price. he was asking £1500 when i rang him, i paid £1050 with 6 months tax put on it. going to start on the interior first. i will strip out everything and replace with a highway star interior. then i will start on the bodywork. all this will have to wait as the mot is May 9. if it needs alot of money throwing at it all mods will have to wait a while.
