Decided we had too many mk2s so bit of bank holiday moonlighting from the mk2 homebrew crew brought this little beaut to the fold...895cc, 72K, all original and lido green. Pic:

Got some work which is starting tomorrow, expect to see it at the shows in the summer...

p.s. Thanks to Vic for being an utter legend and sorting us out some bits we needed. :)

Love it, especially the colour

Damn the amount of rust on this car ! It is a Mk1 though

Lots to do ..

Got some special things to .. Tis going to be a beast

Looks nice that, like the color.

Wheres that tunnel?

I need to go there when my bike carbs are on!!

Had a look at this on the weekend before Chazbot had her accident

Apparently Yeti said its pretty solid

He isnt the one doing the welding

Going to try and get this car turned around in a couple of Months ..

For when Char has got back into driving .. Going to be a few weeks maybee months I'm sure.. She needs to have a minter of a Mk1 for her daily

Here are some piccys of what we have found needs doing bodywork wise ..

Rolling Shot

Rear Strut

The Rust We Removed....

Rear Offside Arch

Rear Nearside Arch

Floor pan

The paintwork test .. Looks like it wont be in need of too much paint . Here is were I polished the upper half of the front wing to get an idea of the paintworks condition .

Its going to be good fun working on this car over the next month or so .

Going to have Chaz shouting orders and bossing us around

She will want to get stuck in herself as soon as she is better though

I bet she wants to work on it now in her injured state

how much isnt rust, sorry i mean character?

Tbh if it were mine, i would only sort the bare minimum that it needed to be road legal, brown+green colour scheme ftw!

I WANT A MK 1!!!!!!!!!!

damn my crippledness I want to get working!! minibus seats and shouting orders for the win.

^^^^ hahaha!

bwhahaha.

awesome.

cool stuff

Never mind the mk1(it's a nice colour mind) I didn't know you were in an accident just read the thread can't believe the scenario just hope your ok.

Fair play that you are in good humour lol.

I'd rather weld up a mk1 than do all the head gasket shit I have just had to deal with.

Doh! repeated post by accident.

sweet colour, look out for mine soon, deep dish splits, lots of shiney chrome and fresh paint, should get a mk1 meet up and running

Wheres that tunnel?

I need to go there when my bike carbs are on!!

Looks like the A55 in North Wales, up near Llandudno and Conwy. Might be wrong of course...

Car looks cool, I agree with Kam, coilies or PhilJ kit and leave it *looking* wrecked
