Will Holman reverts to plan B. Or was it A?

Will Holman PPC Magazine

The Reshell or Repair balance point shifts

It’s all change at The Manchester College this month in PPC. After gathering all the parts bar a rear three-quarter panel to repair his wrecked Ur quattro, PPC editor Will Holman changed his mind. Is this because, deep down, he’s a girl? ‘No,’ says Will. It’s because a good shell became available 30 miles away from me and the only rear three- quarter panel I could find was in Cork, southern Ireland.’

Practical Performance Car MagazineAfter weighing up the costs involved in getting either part to Manchester Will concluded it was more cost effective to buy the shell. The college students are now busy preparing it. But will it be any good? After all, Will bought the shell without viewing it so it could well be a pile of rust. Find out in the August issue of PPC magazine.
