There's nothing wrong with being in touch with your feminine side

Haha I like the one with the rat, sorry dog, sat in the bag!

Hey,

Carsmetics - I have pm'd you about plans for the car!

Sam; What colour is Geranium? Is it the orange colour that will have come out of mine? I haven't got any carpets at the minute, they were disintegrating badly and holding in moisture (and they absolutely hummed lol!) so they had to go! I ...

How rude!

Ahhh you do? That may be useful to know! I dont even know if the left side will work so may just be easiest to replace both, at least they will look even!

Hey Sam,

Yeah I managed to get the back end sorted last summer which was good! Its the smartest panel on her hehe! Thanks for offer though, much appreciated my dear! As for the rear light cluster, I have a brand new one that came with the car, only problem is the left side is the old one so it may ...

Here are a few pictures of the areas I have been able to get a picture of, there are a few more on photobucket though, hopefully at

Haha I agree Will, what else are student loans there for?!? For cars obviously! Hehe

Hi everyone,

Wow I really really appreciate all the offers of help! The main problem with the car at the moment is the issue of transporting her, she's up near Durham at the minute at my parents.

Ben your offer of a trailer would be appreciated, obviously I would cover all your costs and pay for ...

Thanks for that Will, I know exactly what you mean! The thought of parting with it is not a nice one, its just a difficult position to be in, I suppose when financial times are hard you start to look at other options, however I think if I did sell I would always regret it, and as you say I'd never ...

Thats great, cheers Ben! Out of curiosity, why the four door ones?

I emailed the address for that restoration club to see what the deal is with hiring a bay, lets hope its as simple as it sounds!

Heya,

I've been doing some snooping around on the internet and I found this place http://www.northeastrestorationclub.co.uk/workshop.html which is literally about 5 miles from where the car is at the minute- I think this is definately worth looking into more, surely thats half the battle, somewhere ...

Yeah I have quite a few pictures of all the rotten area's, I'l get a few put up this afternoon (going to have to scoot to uni in a min!). I'v been trying to see if I can find somewhere that does car trailer hire in the north east, we have the Midget stored up that way currently in an old bunker so I ...

I'd love to do that, the problem is though that the car really needs new sills fitting as the back/front end of each side is rotten, and the arches are also a bit rotten but I've been told they aren't structural so may not be an MOT failure? It just feels like so near and yet so far because I have ...

Hey Ben,

I know I really want the car to run, I am going to look into the cost of storage for a couple of years maybe, but its just whether I'll be in a position in a couple of years to finish her. I know because I haven't got a lot of the equipment that I need it will cost a lot because I'll be ...
