Looks pretty cool  Bit too early to stick it in readers rides though, you have to collect it first and get some decent piccies of it  If I had as much free space I would also be hoarding some quality tat, as you have proven it's not the cost (£68 is peanuts ;D) but finding some where to store them all. Sir I salute your insatiable car buying, you are a Legend par excellence! |

What a bargain! Can't wait to visit Bo11ox Museum!

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

Wow, thats wicked!
Looks in good order from the pics, very clean!
Does it involve another Bo11ocks epic roadtrip or is it a bit closer to home?
Great purchasing!

Fantastic purchase, and apparantly it's got a radio, smart. Strangely solid looking too? It's always best not to think about what you're going to do with it, afterall you own now so who cares? That's the main thing. Can we expect a Bo11ox road trip, where is it located?

Volvo, Buggy, Discovery and an old tractor.

Excellent.
I have some 'jumble' you might be interested in for that.
In terms of 'styling', I think you should do it EXACTLY like HotWire's one. And get yourself a HotWire T-Shirt, and perhaps a tattoo of hotwire's face on your chest.

Ace buying skills Mr B! Good that it's a round headlight one, and silver is a good colour for them. 4-door ones look a little nicer than 2-door IMO, and they suit that lowered-over-dark-grey-minimal offset-shiny-rim-wheels look so well. Look at the room in those rear arches!
Why not just have a tattoo of HoTWire's face on your face?

I'm green with envy, that little car rocks! B310 is my choice of oldschool Jappa to get hold of as a project currently (I'd flick the KP in a flash) ideally I'd like a wagon to give the full J custom treatment, slam it on my SSR's, smoothed tailgate etc.... has to be the early front end too!

OK i dollied it back the other night, highly illegal!!! The sunny is not astonishing in any way but seems a sound honest old thing.   The only rot I can find is the front door bottoms;  The rest seems pretty mint rust-wise.   The interior is in good nick but could do with a scrub.  THE POWER. Everything is OK in here, the charging light is on but the alternator is working, so I don't know what the crack is there. Mechanically, it has a wobbly gearlever and the brakes are a bit sticky, apart from that it sems A1. 75000 miles so not completely worn out yet. What am I going to do with it? Lord knows, probably shouldn't have bought it really, just itchy bay fingers to blame! Still it only owes me about £85 'delivered' so can't grumble too much. Surprised it didn't get scooped up for export. Its quite an appealing little car, wouldn't mind tackling those door bottoms, i reckon i could do em pretty well, then it would look quite minty. Anyway for the meantime it can go in the barn. Here is some blatant picture whoring for anyone who's made it this far in the thread. The Yella peril mixing it to the max with the Mercs in Basel Airport:   Some of my J-contingent. A room with a view. Shame about the pile of rotten floorboards like.  The barn today. I've been putting in yet more floorboards so I can accommodate more 4-wheeled tat.  L8RZ! |
