Some pics of projects at our unit
Just some random pics from our unit I thought I'd share , we rent the unit off the army , my dads a caretaker at a barracks and asked his boss if we could use a unit , get it dirt cheap and does the job , pics in no particular order just thought I'd share them with you's lot !
My 3 door , sat stripped for ages while I had kids and for married , changed jobs last year so finally got the finances to build it up again
Then the fiesta , bought for £100 as the owners dad was gonna scrap it as it sat for 5-6 years on his drive , surprisingly solid little thing
We rolled it out side to paint inside the car incase people think I over sprayed all the cars lol
The fucking beetle , what can I say about this ! The guy paid 1500 for it , then 3.5k for the worst paint job I've seen in a long time ! Shame really as he thought it would be an easy put together project but floor pan was fucked and welded by Stevie wander and the back half seemed squint and really badly repaired , was sold on and a much better earlier car replaced it (that we looked over first ) and its awaiting paint
Then this turned up , the guys owned it for 30+ years , small block with a b&m blower and 6 speed supra gear box , really nice car but lots of little problems , all easy fixes should be starting it soon , wrong carb for a start , doesn't run very well , never has since fitting the blower , lovely car all the same
My mates saff that's just here for storage , lovely motor , nms live map t34 , mint leather mint body , beautiful car .
How the unit looks as of yesterday , comaro moved to dads unit as its his mates motor and my dads an American car fanatic !!
And a cheeky porker , not in to these much but this is super clean example , belongs to my dads boss , needs serviced ect as been sat for a while
And finally my newest project , dad bought it roughly 15-17 years ago when a model shop in Aberdeen had a fire and sold off all there stock , been sat in my garage for years going fuck all so took it apon my self to restore it , amazing all parts are still available from tamiya , £60 for 4 tires tho !!
And a little clear out of my brothers house !

Yeah the Camero is a stunning car , he's actually got another one that's got a full tube chassis and a big block he uses for drag racing , used to keep it here too , I'll add to the thread as motors come in and out all the time
