shite cars Retroshite

[RetroShite]

The cortina seems to be a funny one with the majority of the comments saying it's shit, it's not a classic and should have scrapped it so I made this video.

 

Now it's "What a dickhead" wrecking a classic etc etc.

 

Nobody batted an eyelid when I did similar in other cars but Ford fans are the worst.

Another quality vehicle has arrived.

I think the Cortina looks great and fail to see how a few doughnuts on soft ground is wrecking it.

This one, I may need to buy tickets even though I never win stuff. It is too much like my sort of dream car thing 😕

[RetroShite]

Another one due to arrive at some point...

It's a bit of a beast and handles very well despite its appearance. It'll be another month before I can get it on for a raffle.

Flippin eck Tucker, she's a V8! 

Also, that Marina... BL nirvana. And the Favorit as an amuse-bouche. 

Consider me aroosed. 

[RetroShite]

We've got quite a few interesting vehicles in at the moment.

A few on the keep list including the Daf 66, 505 gtd, Subaru Impreza, Lada 2101, Toyota Corolla but most of these will be raffled off in the near future.

I think you'll agree, a varied selection of shite!

If I can find a rear bumper!

Already ordered the rear springs and have a set of ats classics I could fit.

Picked up a complete interior this afternoon but need to find seat belts.

[yes oui si]

Classics are a good choice 13x7/8?

Nice to hear it's getting an interior again.

Everyone's at it now!

[RetroShite]

Getting there with the Manta, got some bits from Dome to finish off the interior, it now has matching seats instead of a Manta seat and a random mx5 seat bolted to the floor.

Fitted lowering springs and new shocks to bring the rear end down level, it now sits, looks and drives much better.

 

The V8 makes a lovely sound out of the twin exhaust pipes.

[fatharris]

Not gonna lie, looking forward to the Manta going live.

28/07/24 - a week tomorrow. It's not been all that popular, the DT did better but the mtx is in a much nicer condition.

Got a few bikes coming up.

[RetroShite]

Picked up this beast today!

It actually drives quite well.

[RetroShite]

Some more shite arriving soon!
