Hello guys. I'm karl 24 from Yorkshire. Tried to find a newbie section to introduce my self but couldn't find one so thought I would do it here along with my project. Been after a old car for a while and came across this xr3 witch brings me memories from when the old man had one. Here she is . Hope you all like and hope to find out a lot more about these

 

Hi & welcome I too am pretty new on here to... that looks like a good solid car to begin your project good choice

 

welcome along, nice wee project you have there. i like a good mk3 myself.

 

Cheers guys. Been into diesels recently tuning ect but can't beat a old ford
