Hi there, There's really no better way to while away the hours. What's your ride then? Thanks all, my toys at the moment are - late Cavalier (well gotta get to work somehow!) - nearly finished 4x4 2.8 Escort Van - Honda Fireblade - CR500Hybrid Supermoto - Suzuki RGV250(for sale). Oh ..and no money whatsoever!..really! Previous rides include Minis, Hornets, 6.6 Capri, Gartrac Escort, Pontiac , Mustang, Striker Kitcar. well there the interesting ones anyway.....ahhh the money I've spent on cars and bikes over the years would have made me well off by now, but very bored.

That'll probably be me trying to post a pic, and getting the dreaded red cross, then deleting the post to cover up my feeble efforts ;D Is there an uploader site I can use to host pics? Cheers

That's some list of achivements/cars! Thanks but I cant take the credit for all of them, some were bought not built, but I have been known to get my hands dirty sometimes . I wont rest until I've got the Cossie powered Lada Riva out of my system though ;D

Try www.shutterfly.com for hosting pictures. That or www.photobucket.com (but I don't think you can set up an account at this time of day on there). I think alot of peeps on here use www.muchos.co.uk but it puts a little caption down the side of your pics...if you don't want to have that kind of thing.... Oh, and welcome to the board, BTW...

Better to do it on a Zhiguli model I'd say, they look better and have lovely interiors, although as far as I know there aren't many of those in the UK.

Oh yes, 400cubic inch big block pontiac engine, 3 speed auto, LSD, looked just like a 2.8 special....oh and it had nitrous aswell ;D Would run mid 11 second quarters on slicks. Blew it up and split the car for spares! what a numbnuts I was! all I've got left is 3 2.8Special alloys and a rear cage If I remember rightly it was in Fast Car mag back when it was actually a good read. (about 93/4)
