Bought my mk2 of darren moss, got chatting and ended up asking a few questions here and there, now spend most nights down garage or on the site living it up!
My missus will leave me sooon
ok then mate, i'll hold fire then on ordering some, could you pm me or put up a sticky when you get some info on approximate prices! They got damaged ones on ebay with tyres for around 400 but obviously would be nice to get brand spanking new jobbies!! Saves me having to paint them too!
Hmm, how strange just been on their website, i'd be very interested mate, if we could get a group discount or something, wheel and tyre packages that would be good!!!! Still dont know what to choose yet tho
Mate that shouldnt be a problem fitting it, ask him to check the width, you'll then just need to measure between the front inner wings.
You can always mount them using modified mounts.
Kieran love the photos mate, it was a pukka night and love the one of me chattin to jo and jay, that part of the night was very emotional for me!! The acceptance into the world of oldskool heaven!! and learning how to drink way too much very fast!!!!!
Massive thanks to everyone involved with oldskoolford!!!!! Without all of you, there is nothing!!!! Special thanks to posse, jay (xe All the fooking way mate!), jo, tom, oh and smithy for making me feel at home!!! cheers
What a top night!!!! It went from being funny one minute, then fooking emotional the other ( Darren, there wernt a dry eye in the house) Then it went ballistic with the old skool!!!!! Cant get over how quickly i got pissed, so chuffed i went! Oh and this is for jay!:
XE'S F@&KING RULE YKT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Oh mate thats fooking disgusting, got to admit thats my worst nightmare! in fact its prompted me to fix the doors and reinforce the hinges at my place.
I feel absolutely gutted for you, i hate thieves!
the look on the geezers face is priceless!! mind you i think thats how i'd look with that many horses under my toes!!!!! Love those crazy dutch bastards (i know they're not dutch, just like saying that phrase!)
Hello mate, pm me if you need advice on this, but follow mk2 boys advice and weld a comple roof panel on, either get a donor car or source a new old stock skin.
Be careful when layin on new skin not to push down on corners as this will send a crease diagonally across the roof.
Also be careful when weldin not to create too much heat is you will warp it.
Erm racing down boxhill about six years ago, i was in my nova sr (oh dear!!) And managed to launch it up onto a fookin high kerb and rip the suspension out!
Best thing that could have happend to it really, the good news is i did win the race, although i do not condone street racing of any kind now
Its all about making it your own, Every single panel on my car is repaired or replaced by me! Every mod, tuning decision is mine, thats what makes it unique and makes all this worth doing! But it would be nice to own a mint original too!
Its a shame mint examples of cars like the ultimate rs1800 are used for rallying but, those that are left will only become rarer and more looked after. I used a 1300 Gl shell for my mega project, if i'd of had the money to buy an original rs1800 at the start, i would have kept it standard, maybe jus added things like panhard and brake mods.
handcuffs?
Thinkin more along the lines of rohypranol!!! My god she's gonna kill me when she reads this
You may or may not see me at this years xmas bash
