Well, its hard keeping up with me... since 2005 i have owned 6 zs's and some of you know i bought Dave MGT's a while ago, well il bought it damaged after he was ran into, and it turned out to be a bit worse that originaly thought (ripple in bulkhead!!)

i was on the lookout for a nice shell and it had to be cheap, one came up and i bought it there and then, i have to say it was a lovely car very well looked after and spec'd up by the orignal owner boot hill bandit, some of the modifications he had done were right up my street so it was such a easy decision... i was slightly put of at it being a hatch and being red.. but you know what i really like it.
once i bought it i sent it to a garage up north who did me a good job, they broke the blue car up and moved the engine and bits across the rest of the blue car is dotted around this forum somewhere as many people bought bits

Got yourself a great car there Ross. Jim spent some money on that. Good to see it still around.

thanks guys, got loads more to do yet which is comming soon..

still got to strip bits and bobs out of it, am tempted with the mk2 front end, but just not 100% it will look right in red...

looking forward to getting it on track
