I visited a local ish garage that does a lot of tuning work regarding doing some engine work on my motor to be told by the elderly owner his son has a Marina!!!
Its built as a hillclimb car-mark 2 and putting out about 104bhp at the wheels with a modified B series and MG box. He couldn't remember much else about it.
He asked me if I knew of a set of standard seats so they could make it road going again-Chris-still got yours or are they for a saloon???
Found a Marina! Sort of! And another-sort of!

Balmy,
Yes I still have them, unfortunately they are for a saloon rather than a coupe, he's still welcome to them.
Barmy,
I haven't forgotten about the sliders, just got to dig the seats out of the back of the lockup and take the sliders off the seats.

Re: Found a Marina! Sort of!
Thanks guys-I'll let him know and see what I can sort out.
Went to another place today-guess what the garage owner owns? :P Yep, a MARINA!!!
To be honest I sort of knew-I've even seen it but had totally forgotten! :roll:
