Afternoon people.
Its been 10 years since i was on here and cant for the life remember my old details so set up new.
Good to be back i must add.

To cut a long story short… i brought my first clipper at 17 after many childhood years of wanting one!! After a year of driving it unfortunatly the engine siezed due to a nasty big black pool of oil somewhere on the motorway. I took the car off the road back then to start a full restore spending every minute i had working on her. Years went by and i started working away across the country and world and the old gal got left in the garage looking sorry for herself. 10 years later after now seeing my mates vr6 caddy complete and him pestering me i have decided to brush off the cobwebs and start the build again. Its going to be a long process as i live in sheffield and the car still being down at my cousins in leicestershire its going to be a commute every couple of weeks at a push :(

I have started the ball rolling allready with new front end panels and picked up an absolute steal of a complete 1.8 T package just last week which i have started to strip ready for its clean up and paint etc allready.in storage until the time is here to install )

Plenty of pics will be uploaded along the way and i hope to get to know some of you soon as i remember what a helpful bunch you guys and gals were back then. Things can only get better.

Look forward to getting back in the action !

Thanks all. Nathan
