Hi, I hope to keep a decent log of what i do to this car, having had a build thread on cars previous but not sticking to them that well i hope this one will be different!
So i picked up my 13 last weekend, found it listed on Pistonheads originally, It was one of those cars that i knew as soon as i saw it for real i would have to have it Anyway, a few weeks and some saving later and i bought it home!
Love at first sight
She'd been sat in an unused paint booth for almost 9 years apparently so a good check over was required!
The previous owner was kind enought to do a cambelt and water pump for me prior to pick up
My good friend Bruce got the pleasure of the drive home
First drink in a long time!
Safe at home
My plans are to get under it over the winter months and get everything off it, shot blasted and powder coated (probably a nice shade of silver or metallic grey) and get any rust sorted, altho from a good look on the ramp there isnt much atall!, iv driven it a small amount and myself and my friend Bruce agree shes defiantly a good one mechanically at least!
Long term i think it will see some wider wheels, nice low stance and a classy retro/ jdm inspired overhaul. period correct interior etc... nothing too lairy, just a cool clean car.
Thanks for reading, any tips or advice is always welcome.
