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  (in progress)Major work will do no one else but Romas him self . 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 . Everything is perfect  . Fingers crossed...  To be continued...

All looks fantastic mate, love it
 ..........................................except for the petrol tank lid....... never understood those. I mean why do you need to see the petrol cap? Kinda the same as drilling a hole in your fender so you can see your oil filter to me
