I'm new

Post by SimonSam » Mon Nov 29, 2010 4:08 pm

Hey hows it going? Im new to the world of these great little vehicles although I have had a pretty shocking start. Picked it up on ebay for ok money then dropped into a friends garage for him to sort the brakes for me(I couldn't be arsed). Anyway picked it up two weeks ago, ten miles down the road a con rod through the side of the engine :lol: Made a nice big cloud of smoke though. Anyway I have changed the engine even though it doesnt want to run but i'm getting there. Once I have this pozy engine running I will take some some pictures at the start of the project and keep everyone updated with the progress.

The ebay listing pics, I will take some of it in it's current state when its warmer to go in the barn. I think she has potential :|

Any ideas or suggesting are most welcome. This isn't going to be a crazy project just a bit of fun so sensible ish suggestions :lol:

welcome to the site, the rust looks pretty superficial so I'm sure it won't be to much work to make it roadworthy
