Default Rare opportunity - new car ?

HI Guys,

Not posted much for a while but a couple of weeks ago I was offered a cheap mk1 S12 1.8 turbo..I went for a look and ended up buying it, mainly because I could not believe how good it was...apart form a bit of tidying to the rear arches this car is as good as new. One owner and 50'000 miles....I am on the look out now for rear arch replacement panels and a rear spoiler if anyone has any as I feel that this car may become a show car (NEC next year maybe?)






Thanks
Stephanie

Default Good News and Bad News

Hi,

The shiny red silvia turned out to be a bit of a dog when I got it on the ramp...it had been sitting for 5 years and was worse underneath than expected however it was a good buy as I have now re-stocked all my parts bins.....I will be using some of the panels on my MK2 and backdating it to look like a MK1 (will post the progress in the projects section)....if anyone need any parts give me call.

Thanks
