mk1rob Posted June 17, 2010 Report Posted June 17, 2010 Yeah i often get fed up with mine tbh. Normally when i do something to it and end up causing more problems! The old 'opening a tin of worms' comes to mind. But when i go out in it and have some fun i soon start to like it again

mk14dr Posted June 17, 2010 Report Posted June 17, 2010 escRot is in need of the work Ive been putting off for maybe 3years. Sills, inner and outer, both sides. Both front floorpans. N/S strut-top. I need to rebuild the carb, and to stop the oil leak from around the distributor. Then I need to find a N/S/R door and a straighter bonnet than whats on. Then I could give it a blowover and it'd be half decent for another few years. Then I need to swap the 'box for my spare as it sounds like its trying to eat itself under load in 2nd and 3rd. And I need to rebuild the rear brakes. Flippin' 'eck, thats quite a list.
texr2000 Posted June 17, 2010 Report Posted June 17, 2010 the thought crossed my mind many times, when people offer money for it it def crosses my head, but as the car still isnt 'finished' i always think if i went to a show a saw it and had the things done that where needed i'd kick my self, and i wouldnt buy another as its too much work and to buy one done is stupid money.
