the upper one?

the blue chammy had the standard one in the door and an upper one and 1 on the sill, took the sill one off and it made it look a lot lower. I kinda like the one at the handles though.

well mine is getting oil to the bearings or 140mph trips are not taxing it enough!

blue one is nice, needs a drivers door, the clutch and headgasket sorted and ther rear arches sorted to be perfect.

getting a proper ph1 back box from neal which will make a massive difference to the beast.

got those new rear discs etc waiting to go on as well.

got that one for £100, from an old RR member as it goes, bladey.

Mals and I went to pick it up about 6 months ago

its currently stored in my mums garage whilst i get the others done

I have five cars at the mo, but GYP the MOT failed ph2 hatch will be off soon to the scrappie, all i need to do now is get the engine out of it, rack and column.

wont get anything for it at the mo, no tax or test, i am quite happy for it to be sitting in my mums garage in the dry for now.

Engine from GYP is going into the blue chammy as that one has a blown bottom end, then it can be MOTed and put back on the road

my hatch did have the strip, but someone had it off with a screwdriver...which led me to the world of pain i am in now.

that white one is a sexy beast indeed...good arse.
