Hi Brad

Where are you in the country ?

I know a guy in Bedford who has a few MkII's infact he's just bought a Limo so he may have one for sale.

I'll ask him later today if I see him.

Cheers Neil

Hi Brad

Would you be interested in a 2.8 Ghia, Met. Blue, Body works mint, been stored for about 9 years... C Reg. I think the guy wants Ł850... No rust what so ever... Engine's nice too...

If you don't mind me asking, what you got planned for the granny, once you've found the right one??

What's the max you want to spend??

Let me know...

sounds nice m8
only problem is we are putting hydraulics on it , going to turn it into a lowrider so its gna be ruined by hittin the deck , scraping the corners whilst its on 3 wheels .
dont wanna bastardise a minter , im a total granny fan and would hate to see a good one wrecked
if there was one that needed a little bit of bodywork it would be ideal , cos were gna change the colour to something stupid anyway .
ideally the sort of thing we are looking at is gna be around the 500 quid mark
better than a banger , but not a minter
we wanna take it to shows like the granada owners club , rs meets , old skool meets and custom car shows ! not sure how well it will go down with other granny owners but like i said im not gna be guilty of killing a goodun

Will you be taking her to any granada shows this summer???

it will only take a day to fit the hydro's , maybee a wkend to fine tune things !
im in the middle of re thinking my original lolo set up as there are a few ways to do it these days and want it perfect .
aparently it will only take 9" rams on the front and 8" on the rear which equates to about 12 to 15 inches on the front and 10 to 13" on the rear ! not as much as i was hoping for but still enuff to get a fair bit of clearance on 3 wheel motion
