That is all

your imaginations can run riot until tommorow, as I'm knackered and off to bed

suffice to say thanks to Dan for giving up 7 hours of his evening to help me out.

right, so heres the story

Dan and I spent the evening with a trailer going to fetch this (and put the world to rights in the process, but thats another story  s:wink: :wink: s:wink:  )

following an inspired or foolish ebay purchase I am know teh proud owner of










obviously I felt the need for a project, with teh house and roadster and work just not keeping me busy enough  :-) :-) :-)

she seems fairly sound engine runs, gearbox has no major issues, and the interior is near mint.

not bad for 20 years old  :-) :-) :-)

usual rust spots, and certain parts have been painted in household gloss (don't ask) however for the less than a good night on teh beer it's either an inspired purchase or a money pit, depending on how you look at it.

Good lord Mark - you just can't get enough work, can you  s;) s;)

So does this mean plans for the Roadster are on hold until you've done.. whatever you're about to do to the Mk1?

And how are we going to fit the Nissan in there now....  s:lol: :lol: s:lol:  (Yeah, I know.. if I ever find the cash to fix it  s;) s;) )

[markiii]

for what it cost this is a very long term project or a short term breaker for profit (if closer inspection shows more issues)

Nissan offer is still open just get the cash and parts and let me know

roadster is  still a work in progrerss, i.e chargecooler

and roadster project x is still in teh locate parts stage



want more, just bought the worlds cheapest 2zz with bent valves, which is another long term scrounge up teh parts cheap job  :-) :-) :-)
