Fast Marina Magazine

Hello just a quick post to introduce myself, my name is andy and im new to the world of marinas i recently bought a 1.3 vermillion mk3 which im hoping to do a bit of a restoration work to over the next few months ready for some shows next year (so ill probably be hassling you all for some advice over the next few months ).
I hear a few people on here know the car which is good its always nice to know a bit of history about the car you own.
Ive been after an old car for a while now for myself and my car mad 5 year old son to take to a few shows and this one caught my eye as my grandad used to have one the same colour when i was a nipper so it was ideal, it mainly just needs the bodywork attending to but im in the motorbody game so it will keep me out of trouble for a while.

Im looking for a set of minilite or weller wheels or similar to go on it if anybody has any or knows of any for sale.

I think its safe to say ive caught the marina bug .

Andy.

Hi and welcome - hope that when your car all ready to go you may make it down to the national or the iow with the others should be quite a convoy down. somebody must remember to video some of it.

8) was there a video of the 2007 national made. never heard sean or stevie mention it.

I think Ben said there may be one !! but don't hold me to that !!
