SimonOSF Posted November 4, 2010 Report Posted November 4, 2010 Hi all, Finally found a Mk1, Its a 2.0 GL, 47,000 miles believe to be genuine, has only covered 4000 miles since 1992 i have Mot's to back this up. Plans are to change the wheels at some point and remove the lights off the sides, It does needs a few bits doing i will keep you all updated
grifterkid Posted November 4, 2010 Report Posted November 4, 2010 That is one super tasty motor...! If you've got any more pictures let's see them right away...!!! That must be one of the last Mk1's made being on an S-plate...?! Top Granada sir, brilliant
X FLOW EDDY Posted November 4, 2010 Report Posted November 4, 2010 Nice MK1 granny mate Keep the wheels though, they look hard as nails
Top Ghia Posted November 4, 2010 Report Posted November 4, 2010 Nice find,This has got the sweeny theme tune going in my head as soon as i saw it.
Mr Day Posted November 5, 2010 Report Posted November 5, 2010 Nice granny there mate,whay wheels you goin for,please as ghia 1s?
SimonOSF Posted November 5, 2010 Author Report Posted November 5, 2010 Thanks for the comments I was thinking maybe Ghia or the black and silver mk1 steels, No rush to change these, its just on my "to do" list Another pic, Im well happy with it
Muggy Bonehead Posted November 5, 2010 Report Posted November 5, 2010 Oh man I love those reflector strips with the cars name on, used to see those all the time in the mid 80's on XR2's & 3i's. Never seen a granny one, super retro mod
SimonOSF Posted November 5, 2010 Author Report Posted November 5, 2010 Another thanks for the kind comments!
grifterkid Posted November 6, 2010 Report Posted November 6, 2010 That really does look spot on, nice find sir...
mk1fez Posted November 6, 2010 Report Posted November 6, 2010 that's crap, Si! paha, only joking bud, looks spot on that does! we got a set of mk1 sport steels here
SimonOSF Posted November 7, 2010 Author Report Posted November 7, 2010 Were have to sort something out mate
alec hafele Posted November 9, 2010 Report Posted November 9, 2010 Nice one, must be one of the last MKI as it is S plate, great find!
granny V8 Posted January 23, 2011 Report Posted January 23, 2011 Pukka motor mate, have a look at my granny for some ideas on wheels and body and engine
SimonOSF Posted February 9, 2011 Author Report Posted February 9, 2011 Will have a look at yours mate, I may have found some sport wheels for it now just waiting to hear back. Here's a pic of the interior, Not the best pic in the world as it was getting dark, Can get more if anyone wants to see more I will also be on the hunt for a drivers seat as this one has sagged/collapsed.
granny V8 Posted February 9, 2011 Report Posted February 9, 2011 mk2 interior fits the mk1 too, theres a guy on ebay breaking a mk2, have a look there, another thing to consider, look at maybe putting a mk2 centre console in, they really do look the part in a mk1
SimonOSF Posted February 9, 2011 Author Report Posted February 9, 2011 I got a black Ghia mk1 interior here i was thinking of putting in it the only reason i haven't is i wanted to keep it original but i could always change it back if i wanted to i might look into the mk2 centre console if i can find one the right colour as i only have a brown one, but again i think the other mk1 i have has one in that i maybe able to use
