can almost smell the broken dreams through the very screen of my laptop

 

It would need editing to read:

 

Emma's

"delights"

 

It's amazing what quotation marks do to even the most innocuous sentence...

It's had an arse transplant and major plastic surgery. There has to be a charity looking to improve the lives of these rejected motors...

From my dodgy memory they were late 70's/early 80's  mini engined trike, not certain they were a kit. As you can see it seems to be missing the mini bits and a fair amount of fibreglass.

 

Edit. It's one of 30 all made in the late 70's and google brings up a pic of sat where it is now but with the body intact and the engine still in. Presumably they smashed the irreplaceable body to get an old mini engine and box out.

-These look quite useful for someone (like me) who tends to carry tools but not any kind of bulky materials (they get delivered to site by the wholesalers). Wouldn't be leaving those tools in there overnight obviously.

That 1.3 CDTi motor gives me the FEAR though.....

 

Had a 1.3 Combo as my first work fleet van, loved it, handled pretty well as I think its a corsa underneath the front. It wasnt the fastest thing in the world, ours are limited to 70mph so I used to do 70 everywhere  :rolleyes:  I almost bought one with a saab b204 lump, though the van had done 250k and the engine unknown, half the price of that one too!

Clazzicspeak bingo...the Oxford has it all

 

 ...rally manifold... well kept... contender for classic rallying...without too much effort...the interior is very good , however the carpets are awful...the engine conversion is well done although it lacks finesse this is well within the skills of a Diy'er to put right...need re-commissioning after a lay up... a latter day Swansea log book.... with the car... delivery at cost anywhere...

Look at the fucking state of this! Take one semi-nice 123 Merc and turn it into a skip/pram. Aaah, Crayford were involved. Say no more....except... The hoods were made using the best German mohair, the electrically operated hood frame and rams were aquired from second hand Pony cars bought in American scrap yards and adapted to fit. The cars where very exclusive and very low volume production.

a massive and extremely remote celestial object, emitting exceptionally large amounts of energy, which typically has a starlike image in a telescope. It has been suggested that quasars contain massive black holes and may represent a stage in the evolution of some galaxies.

The RSI center caps for the wheels seem to be missing.

Shit the bed. :shock:  Base model Cortina mark 3!!! :wub: :wub: :wub: :wub:  Base model I believe as it's a later mark 3 and it has round headlamps.  :)

Those wheel trims would have to be frisbee'd.

Seeing a pic of a mark 3 'Tina in a newspaper supplement way back in 1993 was what got me into older cars
