Back in a mk1

So after my accident with my last cabby (r.i.p) seen a few and came across this quite local and pretty fair priced. After checking all the underside, it's solid! No rust.

Engine has Fsh too and a massive folder full of receipts and allll m.o.t certs.

Gunna swap my running gear over to it but for now just gunna clean it up and use this engine for a while and swap in summer!


Cheers.

Looks like you've done well there mate, now theres the question of your user name…… lol

And there is a lesson for you Dave, Brad has taken the manly step to a tin top :-)

Looks a very good buy !!

Ade, I'm looking for a tin top to be fair, but my cabby stays, all man I am lol.

Good man !!

Forgot about my name tbh lol shot, still remain faithful to the cab and that's my excuse. Loved driving it home today and il get more pics when it's cleaned and I'm not on nights!

Oh your welcome pal just don't go listening to any prodigy in it  :wink:
glad you found a car pal and you were ok now get it slammed

The reg plate must be worth a bit ..... to a hair straightening nut that is.

Il be branded that way, I have longish hair lol. Seen your cabby I think on meadowhead

Just actually got the prodigy joke, I like them aswell. Coils will be on soon enough!

I'm guessing the one at Meadowhead is this one:

Sold by some guy from Bradway. I'd arranged to view it and was going to go with £2,500 in cash and hand it over if it looked as nice as the pictures.

The day before he rang to say he'd sold it for £2000. I trust he's learn't his lesson not to accept the first offer.

This one's mine, all the way from Perth:

So had a good look around etc today, it is clean etc and rot free but sills are a bit soft but I'm
Gunna have new uns welded in ASAP, and tank leaks when full full full lol but got a cabby tank(x2) actually, would those fit?

Anyway doom over had a few hours and got this achievement, Coils on, old rims and a proper fuel filler



Went out and took a few pics also





Me in there looking gormy


List to do, rear discs setup I have, 16v servo and m/c and get sills welded in as soon as my mate can. And remove rear lights there horrid.

That looks a good find, great to see you're on with your next project
