good luck with the sale

cheer's i didn't want my first post on here to be a for sale thread but sadly funds are low and i have other projects that need money so this old girls gotta go which is a real shame as i had planned on getting a few miles out of it .
never mind at least i know i bit more about them now and will deffo buy another at a later date as this one has been a pleasure to work on

Superb looking car, hope it sells quick:thumbs_up:

I like what you've done to the car, it looks really fresh! :thumbs_up:

I have to ask though, them taillights; did you convert them to red signals and if so, how with the orange?

Edit - just read, red candy paint! Not really up my street in terms of DIY, but it's good to know. Any vehicle I've owned I've wanted to convert amber to red as it looks much cleaner.

That is one os the nicest UK pre 1980 200 series cars I have ever seen. Needs to be turbo'd though whoever buys it ;)

EDIT: That used to Simon Wards car! It was on ebay a few months ago wasnt it!

Steve you could buy it then you would have a pair...you started to take your lessons yet??

Hi, I cant buy it - I have no storage space :( And I need to pay out for my insurance for Thor in a month or two....ive had 8 lessons so far and am insuring Thor on a learner driver policy on monday to drive accompanied.

Steve

same here shame really as it looks a nice car...so you going for a drive monday??

cheer's for the nice comments guys not sure who it belonged to before me i got it from a guy called Kevin from London about a month ago, it was a little battered and bruised but generally a good base to start from here's a few before pics
