Well, I guess I should actually post some pics of my car! This cost me £12, around Euro17! With a few weeks MOT, and no tax   Its a little rusty in places, but nothing that cannot be easily fixed.  Had a couple of problems, with a broken fuel pump, and now the contact points are worn. It has a missing drivers mirror, but its now fixed with some sports mirrors from a kitcar autosport site.  Fitted a new steering wheel from a Fiat 127 Sport Before:  After:  Much better! This weekend I fitted some 5*13 Fiat Cromadora wheels with 165/60*13 Fulda tyres. A much better look than the rusty steels that were on there. Also chopped 3.5 coils from the front springs, sits much better at the front, but now has serious California Rake, so need to get the rear leaf decambered.  One Cobra bucket seat is now fitted, rear seat removed, and red race harnesses fitted. Will get more pics soon, its raining here at the moment! |

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

Talk about cars from opposite ends of the scale ;D You NEED.... a sticker making for the Audi 'My other car Is a Yugo' with small picture; the rustyest most unflattering angle of the car on there.  I like where this project is going very much... |

Lovin this too! the rims, seat and steering wheel all work soooo well. Could this be the cheapest project ever? That would rock! |

Any overall shots of the car? Those alloys look great, shame you've lost the tat-tastic spotlight grille though.

Made the front look cluttered to me. Anyway, my good freind Dragan in Germany is having it, in return for picking me up loads of parts in Serbia for mine.

Is this a front wheel? If so it's the wrong way round! Hard to tell from the pic angle. |
