I see the 3000GT/GTO section is looking rather lonely. I picked up a GTO under a bit of an impulsive ebay purchase last week and was very chuffed with the bargain I got.

http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/1992-MITSUBISH...0699145422

Will post some updates as I progress. All in all solid car with lots and lots of work done by the previous owner. Paintwork needs some attention as covered in orange peel which will be the first thing I tackle.. just bought a load of wet and dry ready to start.

Had crossed my mind going wide, but when you get one of these cars they are huge already. Takes some juggling to get it in my garage atm.
