My Past and Present Car's

[Lee_XR3i]

First car...

 

 

Rover Coupe. My first one I had no pictures of, My sister kindly wrote it off for me, then I got another one, Auto, no engine, no mot etc you get the picture, changed it over to a manual and slapped in my old standard SOHC engine in from my wrote off one...

 

This how it looked...

 

 

Then with a heavy right foot I managed to blow a rod through the bottom end

 

Then hunted down a DOHC engine to sit in its place...

 

A bit of a paint and a clean up...

 

 

Sold that for mucho's profit (To my Ex's new chap )

 

 

 

Then I found that the need for RWD was a must...

 

I invested next to nothing to buy this heap off an old lady...

 

 

After about 2weeks I got bored and swapped over the springs and shocks from a 325 project car that i never finished, also painted the wheels...

 

 

Then relising the only reason I bought a RWD car was togo sideways, this engine just wouldnt do...

 

 

So out came the engine and in went the 2.5

 

 

After nearly 7/8months I got bored of visting to the petrol station more than twice every day

 

So up it went forsale...

 

 

Then after a few problems with the cash flow (not being paid by an ex-employer) I bought a run around for...£60!!!...LOL

This my stop gap car.

 

Hoping to build something along the lines of this in the new year, Got the shell, engine all ready and waiting for me...

 

 

 

Thats that really.
