I would be glad to store that PI unit for you on my GT6. That 
would be the best way to take care of it! ;-) In fact I am sure there would 
be quite a few people in the states generous enough to relieve you of that 
problem.

Removing the body in sections, is that hard to do ?
Aren't there any welded parts where I have to cut through before
I can split the body ?

Well, I'll put it in my other car and sell the one that I take out, maybe
this project will take longer then the 2 to 3 years (don't hope so :-( ) 
and the other car has one from two years old.
So that problem is solved :-)




And has anyone any ideas how to remove white paint from my dashboard ?
(It's completely white.)

Thanks Andy, and others of course :-)

Bye for now,
