To Strip or not to Strip?

by KERR_SE9 » Sun Apr 29, 2012 7:57 pm

Don't get excited folks! Just the car needing stripped
Looking for opinions on whether or not to strip my Green tubby out and kit out for trackdays, bought it to drive fast on track whenever possible, Appreciate it's a rare car so will keep everything reversible, As I have the Blue one to keep mint for shows etc

Opinions please?
