I need this taking away from West Watford, near the football ground.

I've dragged it from the bottom of my brothers garden and I broke it in half, it now needs to make its way out via a freshly laid narrow drive, so don't want some old pikey dragging it out to the road on a chain, anyone know any good guys? Or if someone here wants to do a weighbridge run I'd throw in a couple of old engines and whatever to make it worthwhile.

You need to fabricate an epic thread, saying that you are taking on the project, post up a shitload of pictures of the work needed and generally lord it on the forum.

 

Then post up 3 weeks later saying that you just don't have the time and are passing this great mantle onto the next lucky member.

 

:-P

That is an incredible amount of rust!

 

How long has it been sitting there, and what sort of condition was it in when it was laid up?

Must be about 20 years sitting there, was getting rusty back then, scabs all around the roof, I did respray it in '89 when it should have been scrapped, extended it's life by about 4 years. It did have an equally rotten Escort keeping it company for 15 years until a halfwit bought it for more than would be sensible if it were sound.

Actually yes, forget everything I've said, let's start over.

 

Introducing my awesome new ride, '78 Pug 104, this oldskoolzer is the SL model so has the w i d e headlamps which will look rather gangsta when I stick a pair of tights over them and badboy up the bonnet, just have to wait until mummys out so I can raid her knicker drawer, (again). I'm not going to follow the usual ratlook cliche stuff, but I do have a strange and disturbing desire for attention combined with the compulsion to demonstrate to everyone how awesomely individual and unique I am that borders psychosis, so I've come up with an idea to hack away at the suspension springs like some grunting mong to give my ride the awesome stance that Mr. Peugeot didn't have the balls for, I've already got the 'look' which I seek well underway, being the non conformist type I shall forgo the bonnet nitromors interface, so to endow some awesome kerbside appeal I have given the roof some awesum patina, this took ages and I think a couple more showers and it will be ready for an awesome coat of laquer to preserve its awesomeness. Does anyone know where I can get Lexus lights for this bad assed hood rat? Halfords say they're on back order along with a consignment of left handed screwdrivers, they didn't have any 3 stud rimz either, bastards.

Awesome.

The front wing and the steering wheel look savable. You have the VIN plate...? :wink:
