Rusty Monza shite

[ianbmw]

Update, it’s now white.

Another rusty shed saved

Wow, that was some labour of masochism/ love.

Great work though

[sierraman]

Outstanding work, it looks fantastic. I imagine shares in BOC are going down now though! 😂

[Marina door handles]

looks fantastic, I still lust after a Monza......

That's superb news. The Monza reminds me of a cat with its continued chances of extended survival. Can't wait to see it back together and on the road. Keep it on those alloys though!

So then, fun fact, the wheels clear the arches and the new exhaust doesn’t catch going on and off the drive.

 

so, it’s staying chavved

@Skizzer

take notice of this :D

[ianbmw]

I need to move the Monza ……highly annoying….. the only practical storage is the NEC this weekend ……feel free to come laugh…..it’s a little less rusty 

[ianbmw]

Took 3 hours today to extract it. Tomorrow’s task is to try and find where all the bits are.

Bloody hell that looks ace now

Ta da! It’s officially landed at the most expensive temporary indoor storage facility in the UK. It wasn’t even off the truck before some spanner told me how to do my job.

Right next to the Smallest Cog……I am sure they will look down on my peasant efforts!

Its in hall 5,  I will be there tomorrow…..or in the Moxy…..I may go back up on Sunday.

Car looks amazing 😍 😍 😍, unbelievable effort 👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼. I thought I was king dick repairing  a couple of sills 🤣🤣🤣🤣.

The car was exactly 20 years newer than yours though and not even remotely as cool. 

Are they twats at the smallest cog then? They usually come across as ok on TV. Really liked Neil and his lad but I think Neil's moved on now? 

Sure Hammond is a serial Vauxhall botherer as well .... You might be getting a job offer and an offer for your car 😀😀😀
