Bought her from an old dear in February with a genuine 16,000 on the 1272cc lump and 2 owners for the princely sum of £400! No MOT, but otherwise looked perfect! SOLD! Rev counter fitted! Tidied engine bay a bit. Got an MOT, Passed with 1 working brake! So got someone who knows what they're doing to fix all the brakes, cant be too careful imo. Seemed to overheat on long runs, replaced thermostat etc with no luck... Then she wee'd herself on the drive, new water pump please! Fixed! The plot thickens? ;D Can you guess what it is yet!? In primer! Then things got silly So, wheels? 13x7 Atiwe? (Borbets iirc) Can you say arch flare? I can, seen as these came on Monday... ;D So, next on the list is BIG Droppage, Rear arch flaring, Front arch rolling, thinner stretched rubber and a G40 interior Then Paint!

Looks utterly lush there. Those wheels are spot on for the car.

Yeah couldn't get a better match I just hope the Sierra will eventually mean we can do this justice before 'summer' is out!

it doesn't matter if it's a Morris Marina or a Toyota Celica - it's what you do with it that counts

At the moment, yes, but it should sit about there with the new springs/dampers on. ;D More of a mo-jo booster than anything
