I don't have many, if any, plans for this because i'm poor and insurance will kill me, maybe one day. So expect a lot of "I cleaned her" pictures haha.
Anyway, this was after i'd picked her up

and said a sad goodbye
Then I got to steal vaughans nimrods for about a week and it looked beautiful!!

But he stole them back so i'm on clones again, which will get a refurb shortly.
Awaiting the arrival of some purple paint for the calipers.
