Valver Wanted (Now Featuring Needed)

[bncrew]

Hey all, long time listener first time caller, here's the story, Ireland has roughly 0 Valvers and this depresses me no end, currently the Cabby is undergoing a lot of work and I'm driving my old reliable 1.4 silver Chamade but i think its high time i valved it up, i know this will require a trip over the water which is cool, anything considered but i am looking to keep it cheap and cheerful as the Cabby is proving to be an expensive repair for me. As always any responses will be greatly appreciated, many thanks in advance

16v the cabby

was thinking about it chet but i have a pristine f3p engine here for her, plan is restore her to exactly as she left the assembly line and then also have a valver as my daily car, basically just instead of having the cabby and a 1.4 chamade have the cabby and a valver

Don't push too far your dreams are china in your hand, don't wish too hard because they may come true and you can't help them. You don't know what you might have set upon yourself.

I like to think that means 16v the cabby

[bncrew]

maybe 16v the silver chamade, that would definitely be a dream but i think i should limit myself to one project at a time, god my mind is so torn right here, valves and such, ah decisions decisions

i have a 16v caddy doing nothing and with my situation at home ive got to start thinking of maybe getting rid of it but its been stud for a while and needs a little work for the mot when i bought it i was told that it as been fitted with kent cams and is chipped but i have no paper work to prove it starts up and runs fine i had a quick look around and think it needs a front suspention leg a subframe mount and little things like hand brake adjusting other than that its a nice car or could make a nice car....

hi matey ave you got any pics of the silver chammy? me personally i like them in silver summit different than 449 blue
cheers jay

[bncrew]

sure thing jay, i cen definitely get on board with blue but silver just blows me away, the ultimate dream is to someday have a silver cabby, heres a link to the first silver chammy i had, sadly no longer with us, and heres a link to number two which was originally bought for parts but is now in daily use, it seems to be a rare enough colour which is kinda sad

sure you dont want pheonix when im ready to sell? lol

[bncrew]

pheonix is an awesomely cool car and id never rule out any 19s, after all it is my duty to give rise to the 19 scene here although was talking to paul about the cabby, seems very very feesible to me, ireland needs it imho
