Hi Guys and Girls


Recommended Posts

I’m Dave and thought I’d just say hi. 

I’ve recently became a member after using this site for quite a while and would like to thank all the people who have gave me the inspiration to build my car.

Lizzie started life as a left hand drive 1100 and has now been converted to right hand drive running a 2000 Black Top on twin 45’s

Hi Mark, as with any project I would suggest that you do your research and have yourself a plan and budget to work to.

Before you know it a build will spiral out of control so spend every penny wisely.

Once I decided on the engine I wanted, I used this forum to see what others had used before me as a guide using the vast knowledge available on here.

 I used many parts from Retroford who know these conversations inside out and used there package as a guide sourcing cheaper and alternative bits and pieces along the way.

good luck 😁

Many thanks - Would be really nice to try and get a Zoom type chat going with a couple of you that know your Mk1’s.

I have aspirations about the look (inside & out) and the performance, but need to keep it realistic and a usable car. Waited a long time for her and as the shell appears to be solid, I’ll be keeping her for a long time.

Thanks again and looking forward to chatting. 🤪
