helen

im a mega fan of this, looks well

hiya, yeah i got it from ebay from leeds! i cant complain really considering the amount it was but when ive been having work on it its been noticed that its had some sort of accident on the rear and front as metal was buckled badly in some areas. Its just stuff like this that pisses me off about some people who dont say if something has happened. No wonder it drove like a bag of swank and steered in the wrong direction haha!

yeah keeping it the original colour, i wasnt a fan of green at first but its grown on me and i actually like it, plus the fact it has green tint glass which would look gay with most other colours

bump for MOT pass this afternoon with 1 advisory on a rear bush

oh cheeky

bump for new panels fitted the welding finished and pepperpots

Only things ive done so far is sort the tracking, fit a replacement passenger mirror (which was a massive ballache) and spend literally a week removing an alloy trim that was stuck round the whole car as was lifting badly in some areas. Plans next are replacement panels (inner wing and rear arches), referb the wheels and set new tyres, probs need suspension looking at sometime soon, then aiming the save for respray by end of summer realistically. Any comments/suggestions are welcome.
