Thanks to the help of the top man 'cavmad', the 'tina got delivered, we told the owner it would be June 
nevermind its here now.
OK So i'll first fess up its not officially mine! Its the GFs first car. well thats a lie, she had a Mini when she was young teens that rotted in the garden. So she found it, moaned that I was obsessed with us getting it! I got a bit bored, then she decided it would be the ideal nag free cool dudess motoring solution.
Its a beaut, sills and arches are better than my Sapph, although, it does have its usual rot spots!
Its a non starter too but being winched up onto 'Cavmad's truck made me feel like a right retroer, its got that old car smell, wooden bits, and old stereo, a big bus wheel, square front, high dash, and an big high rise wobbler! Yay!
Mr W who was GF's old decent landlord, nice chap, he left the old 'tina sat for 3 years, when he started running this Merc instead, this thing looks cool with loads of bodges making sure it troops on and on, the back and boot have all kinds of house fitments etc. Its used to tow its trailer.
cavmad and his helpful young assistant do their thing.
To the horror of neighbours, its landed!
rust squad, we need a mobile welder, the wings will come off to adress this and hopefully go back on, windscreen and rear screen needs to come out to get this right...
boot looks ok
Shipwreck part 2!
shipwrecks together
interior is lovely thanks to a life of furry seat covers!
genuwiney 43.8K , just need to get the fugger started now, nothing on turn of key so could be starter is my guess...
Biggest challenge was to get it in the garage due to big old skool shelves full of newly collected tat taking up space, after dodgy measuring i needed to make up only 15cm!! So i got my quick fix woodwork skillzors out and did some mods
So we have new Battery, more fuel,
found out its half full of old juice! 
collected some 14 inch sexy rs7's with good rubber, an old skool wheel. Plan to lower it a bit (insurance is an issue here) .
Ms R has her own hatched cool future plans which include a full respray and some lowering, plus pimping cream interior, anyone got one?

cavmad, yeah cheers mate done agreat job and you're right its not a bad old clunker at all. it might need shifting soon again thanks to a shonky flat! 
Loss of garage is making me ponder hunting a welder and rushing it through an MOT, which is the same scenario of the MR2.... Hmmm
