Like that a lot , not a big fan of moggies, guess you get a few tut's from the original only owners

Especially like the blacked out door and window frame, also the door mirrors are very neet ;D

Thanks for the comments ;D
some of you might have seen it in Retro Car Magazine 2 years ago! it had a 2l fiat twincam in it back then. Now 2 years on i've fitted a focus ST170 engine sierra type 9 gearbox, gsxr 750 bike carbs. The back axle is mk2 cortina and the brakes are ford fiesta discs alround standard torsion bars at front with spax shocks and the rear is leaf springs with spax shocks. Interior i tryed to keep simple with vauxhall leather seats and some extra guages . ;D

You got a job to beat a lovely Minor in my opinion,was the first car i started messing with many many years ago as a young lad (50 now) had a 1340 a series with 4 spoke revolutions wow,,,,did progress onto building a blown v8Rover then small block Chevy powered split screen pickup with roof chop for drag racing,,happy happy memories,, seeing these fine example gets me thinking u'mmmmmmmm

HI. How do you upload pictures ? I have been trying for two years !!! .....Nothing works for me .and I'm quite bright!!!!

If you have spent two years trying to fathom out how to show pics on here, when you've already got a photobucket account which is 85% of the effort anyway, then i'm afraid to my ears you're not sounding terribly bright.

All you have to do is copy the photobucket image address (photobucket already gives you that, directly beneath each thumbnail in your account) and paste it into a post on here. You'll know if you are copy-pasting the right thing as it will start and finish with tags

Back on topic, what a fine looking Moggy. I bet that goes like curse word off a shovel too.
