coming along nicely dude, i cant wait to see this finished and on the road!

wish i had the space for another car! would love a project like this :p

works looking mint dude, but dont be getttin it sprayed for 800 squids you mofo, its just a metro at the end of the day and a wee test bed for your engine, I'm sure you can get a good enough finish with your ocds and the thing is once the engine is all broken in youll be sticking it in the mini anyway.

steering wheel looks good what size is it? and i still want those corbraues (sp!)

and the only cork youll need is for your wine bottle (and if you drink wine your a fag anyway)

hahahahahaha, cheers naa i cant do bodywork i can prep metal i can spray i just cant work with filler ATALL, the met wil be going to shows e.t.c so i want a decetn standard of finish so 800 it is unfortunatly, I'm too OCD'd to have it multicoloured :lol:

may ask if i can help out with it when its at teh bodyshop nock the price down abit.

The wheel is a momo race 280 I THINK it could well be bigger though possibly 300, the seats are staying :lol: well until i get some fixed back ans harnesses that wont be happening til the monkey bars are installed (some time yet)

all the new parts are getting sprayed satin black and the arches e.t.c are satin so the car may aswel be satin all over :p

man youve got ocds boyo, I'm so stealing you for a week for a cleaning session

:lol: I could just imagine you and Walshy going along in the loon and kidnapping him and making him scrub away every bit of dirt on your cars with a toothbrush :lol::oops:

The Metro looks mint though and without the front bumper it looks awesome yellow tinted headlights would look pimp 8-)

cheers guys, well as MancMike now knows theres a great site for them well if you want a decent stdish project to start with join: www.metroownersclub.org they will help you out.

But if youve been looking on ebay give up, all the decent metros arent put on there as the owners cant trust who there cars are going to so they dont seem to put them on there.
