Hey everybody, I've been using this forum for many years now taking advantage of the search function and scrolling through build threads for inspiration but never actually posted anything on here. So it's about time I introduced myself. So here goes.

Hi I'm Matty, I'm 26, I live and work in North Norfolk around the Fakenham area. I work for a local agricultural contractor which takes up most of my time but when a do have time off I enjoy nothing better than getting the tools out or just going for a drive.

I am the proud owner of a 1991 mk1 ep82 in 6l2 blackish green which was actually my first car I had on the road. I'v owned this car for about 6 years now. I can't remember the full story behind it but the car gained the name of snoopy shortly after getting it back in 2011.

Shortly after getting the car

After fitting d2 coilovers

I am a very mechanically minded person that will always prefer to do a job myself than take anything to anyone else, even if that means going out and buying specialist kit to do a job, because of this Im also the person all my mates will bring there cars to.

I am currently rebuilding my little starlet and a build thread will be going up shortly aswell. I've come across a rather awkward problem with it which will be explained better in that thread which I will also link back to here. (basically the water pump locks up against the housing)

Whilst the starlet is in project mode I am currently driving the "daily"/next project that I purchased way too early. A mkIV supra.

I look forward to chatting and getting to know you all and hopefully be able to offer help to others that may need it.
