Up she goes!

Up she goes!

definately going to sell my cab, but i'm not going to hang my mk1 boots up yet, i just need to recover the bank situation.

i've just taxed it again, and am mot'ing it within the next couple of weeks so will have 6 months tax and 12 mot!

here some stuff about it.

i'm currently putting the vauxhall brake upgrade on. (g60 discs with vectra calipers,carriers and pads) and also a single lamp grill conversion.

1.8 8v standard engine covered 95k with all previous mot's to back up mileage.
gun-metal grey in colour with grey roof and white interior roof with black leather interior
gearbox is from a mk2 1.6 driver (not sure on code) but it pulls like a train!

the list of new parts i've put on seems to be endless, (i'll most probably miss something out, but here we go)

everything has been replaced within the last 18 months. and covered unde 1000 miles

clutch
gearbox and end cap
gear linkage
cambelt dayco belt fitted (done under 300 miles ago)
aux drive belt
water pump
cam shaft seal
rocker gasket
sump gasket
oil pick-up removed and cleaned out
new brakes all round (front dicks and pads, rear shoes )
battery
starter
wiper motor
rad and fan
dizzy cap
leads and plugs
all filters
front grill and lights
windscreen.
full set of vdo gauges (oil temp,pressure and volts)(all wired up bar pressure one)
door cards with custom speaker pods
fully wax-oiled this week
front calipers replaced too
fusebox and all relays replaced
other stuff thats recently been done

new hood lining fitted (just before i brought the car) completly water tight!
full g-max suspension all round (still think its under gurantee)
4 new tyres
15" alloys (think they are tsw)
full black leater interior (small amount of wear to drivers bolster)

i can't remember much more off the top of my head, but there is a folder going back to the first mot in 89 when it was 3 years old.

the only bad bits are that the shell could do with a blow-over (somone pushed a trolly into the side and scuffed it last year. (not amused to say the least)
the alloys have a tiny bit of scuffing (minimal)
there is a small amount of wear in the drivers seat
glovebox lid broken (hinge bust)
drivers + passener window drop slightly (will be fixed soon hopefully)

based on the norfolk coast (near norwich if its easier)
i also have a few extra spares that i'd bung in too if necessary.
here's a few photos from last year, if you need any other photo's, pm me and i'll stick some up.
