forgot i had pics of this on me pc. its a viva coupe a pal of mine bought after i'd seen it at a friend of a friends garage squashed inbetween the ramp and the wall. couldn't really get a good look at it but we thought seeing as my pals a good welder we might be able to do something with it... unfortunately after getting it out of the garage it turned out to be as rotten as a rotten thing BUT me and matey boy did keep the glass,lights,bumpers ,doors and bootlid. just not sure if i should have kept the seats or not........ ;D it had some of those furry seat covers fitted (you know the ones your dad used to have) so naturally we thought 'ooh i bet they're keeping the original seats in pristine condition' ........ so i lay down the gauntlet and ask - has anybody got WORSE seats than this ?? enjoy       |

hello colonelk did you get that pm i sent you about the viva dials ??
yeah it was a real shame it was rotten . it had had a decentish , windows out respray at some stage (think it used to be gold) and it didn't look too bad after we'd polished it up but the chassis rails were non existent,the inner wings were ****ed , the inners sills even the boot floor was hanging on by a thread so it was a no go. shame.
there again me pal paid £100 for it,we stripped it and got a load of bits and then a month or so later he picked a 2dr saloon up for £300 off ebay and its absolutely MINT . he ended up putting the front panel + twin lights into the ebay car so we did end up getting our moneys woth out of it

oi penski , this thing wouldn't have made it to the bay.. i think if we'd even tried to take it round the block it would have done a 'blues brothers' and collapsed in front of us....
shame tho,looked ok after i polished it !
