Just checking in on my first post
Picked it up last week, Guy that had needed the space (8+ retro/very old cars) so gave it to me for free. Not been touched for at least 2 years, I knew where it sat before then too and don't think it was worked on for a good bit there either. Only tax disc i can find is dated 1997!
Anyway, Chassis is totally rotted out and as it was free i've no intentions of restoring it to standard. Planning to put a bike engine in it, Should be a Yamaha FZR1000 EXUP if all goes to plan. Got a galvinised chassis from a Reliant Fox, Which as far as i can tell is identical apart from the wishbones, Which i'll have to make anyway.
Nasty:
Spent a few (aye right!) hours on it yesterday, Removing and cutting bolts off to release the body from the chassis, Though i couldnt lift it off myself, So monday i should have it off.
