Default Space Made :)

Well my abandond MK1 golf project has now gone. striped to a bare shell and that has just been taken by the scrap yard.

Some bits ( anti roll bars ) will live on in our long standing MK1.

So I now have a bit more space.

Only 1 Golf, 2 Sierras, 1 Mondeo, 1 Galaxy and a roadster chassis

TT

Decent saph Cossies can be had for under 4k, useable ones for 3.

But why not buy a 24V or Twinturbo Converted XR4x4 or Sapph for less than £1500, A mate on another forum just sold his mint 24V 4x4 Sapphir for £1700 with full cosworth body kit, leather, etc.. No rust at all. Total bargin.

Well done TT

If you are anything like me you'll find something to fill the gap

I have managed to get shot of some of my vehicles recently .... All I need to do now is find a buyer for my Transit tipper & I will be down to just the 2 cars in the drive

Nice one TT,

hope you now have the space you need to get cracking on your Roadster, get it rolling & it really starts coming to life & keeps the motivation going to get it completed.

cheers
andy
