After all and under all circumstances I have made final decision what happen with my celis. I can not afford two of them but both has many advantages (one design and second power and traction). So I have only chance... two became one. The best from each will be taken. I hope in two months will be everything finished so stay tuned...

The plan:
- to separate all "fancy" parts from ST-T (done!)
- collect all parts for transformation and get GT-four ready (done!)
- pass LHD conversion with GT-four (I know it hurts... but this is only way how to register car in CZ) (done!)
- finish paint job... (done!)
- tune new baby a bit smile.gif (in progress)

Major work will do no one else but Romas him self smile.gif . The best of the best for something like this... here I have few pics to share:

August, 30th:
Collection of parts for conversion has started... (complete LHD dash)






September, 2nd:
Conversion date fixed, list of parts closed, conditions set... I'm full of optimism smile.gif . Everything is perfect biggrin.gif . Fingers crossed... wink.gif

To be continued... biggrin.gif
