front crossmember cracked!!

[nealtovsen@yahoo.com (Neal Tovsen)]

Sorry to hear about your car. :(

I was/am the guy who is organizing these add-on
reinforcement bars. The project is still not 100%
definite, but it is starting to look good.

Send me an email at nealtovsen@yahoo.com and be sure
to let me know if you have a Mk1 or Mk2.
