Picked my breadvan up about a month ago, taxed and tested till october so chuffed i got it for £200

But then i drove it home... realised there were a few Lots of problems

Had to change the usual Fuel tank and coolant sensor to get it bearable to drive, then found some roof racks in the scrap at work and chucked that on, also found an old exhaust off a Jaguar E-type , cut my back box off and welded that on and that was it for a few weeks

Now bought a Coupe off a mate, just a shell, going to nab the parts off it, would be nice to chuck an engine in as its a tidy car but dont think ill have time as i currently have 5 cars

And the Coupe

Not sure on a plan yet, lows and wheels for a start then maybe plastidip or just a respray. would love to do an AFH aswell but that can wait

are the wings any good on the coupe

I'm afraid all the coupe parts are sold now

Got the car lowered now

Bought a set of BBS's that I'm slowly blasting, polishing and painting and once there done i can start focusing on the bodywork

Had a few troubles, my clutch pedal fell off after the clip snapped. turns out I've got the pedal box problem but luckily I've got a spare one. fingers crossed it'll sort it

The cars also running like a dog , got some new plugs , leads, rotor arm and dizzy cap in the post hopefully should help out

Wheel progress, finished blasting, now to get them on the polishing wheel

crikey haven't updated this for a while

well i finished the wheels and also rollered the car nato green

she has since rolled over 185,000 miles and still going strong, also bought myself another breadvan which I'm sure ill get some pictures of soon!
