I didn't realise mk1 Scrots were still available for Β£3k. Seems a relative barg.

What makes you grin? Antidote to grumpy thread
Dick Longbridge replied to outlaw118's topic in AutoShite
Love it. I had the same bike back in the late 80s/early 90s and then another rusty one which I never ended up fixing up a few years back. Have you owned it for long? How does it ride? -
Flippin' love this thread. Brilliant to see the gold 309 moving under its own steam after so long, too. Keep up the great work!

That looks relatively good value for fairly genuine looking rusty old Ford, compared to the usual insane price tags. I still don't understand why Fords have so much markup in contrast to GM.

Great work that man! The old slag has tried everything to avoid mixing with other old rammel but your perseverance has clearly paid off - superb work! -

Nice win! That looks like a Mk1 Night Burner. If it's a clean survivor, it's worth a minimum of Β£600 I'd have said. There's a clean survivor on ebay for Β£800 although it's not sold. -
Seller has their head in cloud cuckoo land if they think that 'the blobs of rust on the bodywork are just surface blemishes'. I love this line too: The engine is stuck at the moment. Looking on the bright side that means it must be a good one. (A slack engine could be worn out). Plenty of shill bidding likely to happen on this snotter I reckon.

That's excellent to hear. Despite the haters, the reactions above after only ten minutes suggest there's a decent number of us on here who are genuinely pleased that Dez's project is steadily heading towards the finish line. Kudos to you for taking the reins after the previous good work.

Those S12 Silvias have really come of age. Nice.

The VXs and Ventoras were handsome bastards. One of my earliest car memories is reaching up to the chrome door handle on my dad's bosses VX estate and hopping in. He had borrowed the car for 24 hours - it felt like a limo with decent grunt to 4 year old me, especially in contrast to his usual daily driver Chrysler Horizon. They're still lovely looking motors, and much like most GM motors of the era, undervalued compared to the Ford alternatives.

If that Micra were a person, it would be an elderly grandmother or grandfather with mild mobility issues, wearing a cardigan, grey pleated trousers and white Reeboks from Sports Direct to make the corns less uncomfortable.

That's fantastic! You're seriously playing your skills down. What did you print your decals onto? They look almost factree!

That's the one. Thanks!

Dows anyone have a link for a rotten Nova GTE which was on ebay within the last couple of weeks? I can't find it now - it was a dark green colour but complete with engine if I remember correctly.

Funds sent via pp. Cheers to the team who keep my favourite corner of the internet afloat.

Reminds me of the Curious Tall Metro. On a different note, have we had this one yet? Sharon Sharon Sharon Galaxy Sharon Sharan

That's a fairly early one - well bought! Original pie tray hubcaps too - not seen them for years. GM got the ergonomics of the cabin just right on these - I loved the driving position on mine. A mate had a B plate 1200 an age ago - I reckon C plate survivors are now rare let alone Bs...
