That said, JayD's paint/body shop is ultra-meticulous and will take a long time. I'm okay by this as everyone is very happy with the Fiat - my dad took it to Guruvayoor yesterday and enjoyed every bit of the drive and the attention the car generated. | |

Vishvakarman - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia All hindu artisans pay homage to this guys before undertaking anything large. Maybe steer needed to do that with the Land-1. His string of woes with the other cars also points to some divine interference :( | |

Senior - BHPian ![]() | ![]() Wokay! Update time again!! Took delivery of the 'Beast' from nikki today, and headed straight to the paintshop. The detailed estimate will be given tomorrow, as it was quite late today when i reached there. The car is nice to drive. Just needs a lil tightenin up once the paintjob is complete. ![]() Here are (possibly) the last pix of the car in its current avtaar! Last edited by JayD : 9th March 2009 at 20:37. |

Senior - BHPian ![]() | ![]() A poor battle scarred beast entered the hospital, its master hoped his pet would be perfect again, washing away, all memories of previous abuse but alas, all is not rosy... Yet again!! When will it ever end,wonders everyone. ![]() Last edited by JayD : 24th March 2009 at 11:19. |

What I heard has my blood boiling. More in detail after we see the pics - stripping the paint revealed what is beneath and also what a bunch of low-life thieves those guys are. | |

If things are as bad as they have been made out, that is not going to be an option. I may have to abandon the project. |
