Hi All, Sorry for the lack of updates of late. Being having some personal issues but now getting back on track

I'll post some pics in the next week or so of what I've been up to at HQ but another thing which has unfolded over this weekend is that as from October we will be taking over the unit behind our existing one as well as keeping our current one, which also comes with a fair sized parking area so Richieg can bring over all of his other motoring relics   Pics of those to follow too over the coming months.

Monday 11th my FSO truck will be on the road and will be my daily driver. This was Bennos old one not the 2 piece one which is still under restoration.

[Tayne]

Hey Benno, 

Remember the old ARO truck you wanted me to find?

 

 

 

 

Well I found it tonight.

That ARO looks factory...

[steve360]

I've been following this lot for a while - you guys are nuts, keep up the good work!

[RedSparrow]

I DEMAND UPDATES

[Felly Magic]

Well I actually met Steve the other week, and all I can say he is an absolutely epic bloke, and Niko his Caro is most excellent, and I did put photos of it in the Cold War Cars thread. I'm hoping to pop down to FSO towers some time this summer too, so I hope Steve has plenty of teabags & milk .

 

Steve, you are an absolute legend when it comes to FSO's, and long may you continue. 

[SambaS]

Here's some high Q pictures from the last few days, Steve's just hit 2000 miles since completing the rebuild on 1st of March 2014. I'm sure Steve will update with his build pictures some when. Stay tuned guys!

 

 

 

 

[Felly Magic]

Cheers Edd, I can see Steve is proud of his work on Niko

Brilliant work! ta for the updates

[cort16]

plushest fso eva!

[trigger]

That's looks wonderful now Steve, no wonder your so happy with it!

[Cavcraft]

You have just won Autoshite. 4 EVA.

[Charlie Croker]

Amazing stuff. We need people like Steve who are prepared to do this type of thing with this type of car. Loads of people restore MGs Jags and the like so to see such passion and commitment to FSOs is an inspiration to us all.

 

Great work my friend.

[Wilko220]

It's all been said already but I need to say it too anyway. Stunning work.

[skoda_fan]

Blimey, Steve. Didn't realize she'd had such a major strip down and rebuild. She was actually originally in a similar condition to mine, which I gave up hope on and sold on. Truly amazing and inspiring work, well done!

[phil_lihp]

Top work, highly impressive!

[KruJoe]

Thanks for coming back Steve and sharing that with everyone. I told you it'd go down well! Stick around this time.

 

The new plate looks fab - not only does it spell 'His FSO', but I also see 'HI-SO'. If you've ever been to Japan or east Asia, Hi-So means 'Well Posh' (from 'High Society'). Seems apt!
