  1. Where's it located now? And same price? Anything done to it recently?
  2. Picked up my new 4efte engine and there's little chunks out the cam lobes... Great.

    1. Chops

      Oh that's promising, I still need a boat load of little parts though as it's missing half of them dammit!

  3. Oh my god that's wicked!!! If only I could find one like that near me lol
  4. Bastards. Do you go to any meets etc? If so might be worth looking out for them there as that might be where they'll find a car they like. No one suspects you walking round looking at a car at a meet
  5. What was the bonnet polished with? Looks a good project
  6. I'd just advertise it with an honest description and show them the MOT certificate. Who's going to argue for £500. It's peanuts for an MOT'd road worthy car imo
  7. Yeah he goes to Stockport cruise see it quite regularly
  8. Jeez! Sounds pretty nuts! And fair enough haha. I was curious as there are quite a few Glanza v's that go to various cruises round here Got myself an engine, box, shafts and a few other bits now anyway! Not sure on turbo yet but will buy a scrap one with scrap manifold for engine test fitting purposes etc. Will get my thread up after tea
  9. Just asked my mate Marc and he said it's Tony Barnes clubman, Straight cut specced up hillclimb car?
  10. I've not been to Manchester Minis but I'm friends with quite a few that go there. Although I'm sure I did once see a red clubman dotting about stockport I'm not sure if it was that one. I'll ask my mate if he knows the clubman though... Although you don't happen to go to Trafford or Stockport car cruises do you? Yeah, fingers crossed I can pull this project off. I weld and fabricate for a living so the only thing scaring me at the moment is wiring! I'll be working on my Metro again today so hopefully see some progress and I'll stick the build thread up tonight.
  11. As above, black 6 spokes, lowered and a bit dirty haha. About 6 ish tonight. Anyones?
  12. Cheers. And yeah the handling in this thing is mega and it stops on a dime but it needs something quicker up front. The a series no longer cuts it haha
  13. I shall copy the thread across then! It'll be a bit of a sleeper. But no idea where to begin come the engine and box etc
