Default "Newbie" kind of

Hi,
im Nick, im 22 and a mechanic at VW van centre in bilston edinburgh
I've been a member on here for quite a while. I've not been on in a long time but used to be a regular, just never had anything to say lol, I've now purchased a 1975 escort mk2 1.3 gl AUTO 4door saloon I got it cheap and with the plan to repair the required panels etc and hopefully keep it as original as possible (maybe), get it mot'd etc and get it on the road. I may post pics up (when I get daylight to take them) if anyone is interested?

Thanks for taking the time to read this and I'm sure we will bump into one another somewhere on the site.

Hi, it needs the spare wheel well and two seatbelt anchors for the mot, not too bad really, needs a rear panel aswell but its not urgent, just want it through an mot and then i can look into making it look better.
