Dan's Mk1.

Well here it is ....

Notice the bonnett sticking up at the windscreen. It's on washers apparently to aid cooling (?) Not for me. They'll be getting removed. If anyone wants them ... come get them !







Interior's in decent nick. Wheel feels good, but there is no space for the cables behind the stereo so it sticks out.



Missing some mesh, and not sure about the yellow fogs.



Having had some time to have a good look around it, there are quite a few minor blemishes on the paintwork, but all in all, I'm chuffed with the car. After a few hundred quid, I'm going to have a really good runner for a bit of fun and will be looking to get to more track days in it.

I won't be too worried where I park it, or if the boys have their feet up on the seats either.

Yep ... going on Thursday.

Been to a guy I met via the 75 forum. Bonnet now sorted although the panel gap is still poor. His current project .... Fixing vis motors !
