Default B reg mk2 - It's started!

Right, I haven't posted for a while due to working my skinny little white ass off daily!

I have a few pictures, no idea how they're going to come out, as they were taken on the Veiwty!

Haven't done much tbh, not had the money hence the working 60 hours a week!

Painted the lights yellow for a laugh, came out like they were meant to be. Stripped out the whole car from the back to the front, leaving jus the dash and front seats. (Trying to find someone that will make me up a steering surround instead of having that dash in there)..

Hopefully going for some Recaros for a little more support as the grandad spec interior was past it's best before 24 years ago!

Friendly critisism always welcome.

Also the car cost me a measly £120 - And since then i've spent absolutely naff all..

Although atfer scouring Egaaay I found a second hand kit and a steering wheel all for under a ton. Kit has no scuffs or marks, just needs a good clean, and I *believe* the steering wheel has everything with it, centre cap e.t.c!

Enough of my dribbling on, The Car!









The ONLY problems i've found, some were due to age, others to old codgers who can't drive..







There we go!

Where to start, lol!

XR2 kit, possibly banded steelies, or just pepperpots with a refurb and a crazy colour, orange or something, with silver lip..

Engine wise either, rst lump, zetec turbo, or just n/a zetec on TB's! Probably can't insure a tubby yet, so may just stick with the 1.3... :/

I'm possibly going to go with perspex windows, fibreglass bonnet and boot, fully stripped out and caged.. clears all round, slammed around 50mm.

Well see what work has to offer me with the payrise coming!
