BOUGHT MY LATEST PROJECT ABOUT FIVE WEEKS AGO BADLY PAINTED MK3 16I CAB 1984
FOUR OWNERS FROM NEW
SHE WASNT IN BAD CONDITION
THE BOY I BOUGHT IT FROM HAD JUST MOTD IT WHEN SOME ONE TRYED TO STEEL IT AND SLASHED THE ROOF
HAD BEEN PARKED UP FOR SIX MONTHS
REAR ARCHES STARTIN TO ROT FRONT WING TOPS
BUT IM GETTIN THERE NOT TO BAD KEPT ALL ORIGINAL PANNELS
JUST GETTIN IT READY FOR PAINT AND SORCIN PARTS AT THE MOMMENT
IVE HAD LOADS OF FORDS OVER THE YEARS
BUT MY FAV WAS A 1982 BLACK XR3
THAT WAS SADLY WROTE OFF BY SOME SILLY COW ON THE SCHOOL RUN
THOUGHT IT WAS ABOUT TIME I HAD ANOTHER MK3

HOPE TO KEEP YOU UPDATED

also any ideas would be great




USUAL ROT WHERE WINGS WELD TO FRONT PANNEL





FLOOR PAN WAS SOLID


OUT WITH THE ROTTEN






TOOK A TRIP TO A LITTLE SCRAP YARD IN RURRAL NORFOLK THE OTHER DAY
THE BLOKE WHO RUNS IT HASNT CLEARED ANY CARS FOR ABOUT TWENTY YEARS
I WAS LIKE A PIG IN SHIT PARDON MY NORFOLK
I MANAGED TO GET A FEW GOOD PARTS
THIS DASH HAS A COUPLE OF SMALL CRACKS BUT HE CHARGED ME SIX POUND STILL HAS ORIGINAL RADIO CHEERS MATE



BOUGHT THIS BLACK 1985 16I CAB FOR THE ROOF AND A FEW OTHER PARTS
