  • Mk1 Mexico

    Quite a while back I put a local guy who I have known for many years in touch with Mexico Mark and I beleive he bought this wee car from him, since then it has been stored and untouched. The guy has his own garage and large bodyshop but as is usually the case doesn't have the time to spend on the MK1. As my own car is finished and theres only so much daytime TV that can be watched I have offered my time to strip the Mex and get it onto the turnover frame. From there he will decide where to go, I don't think its gonna be a standard rebuild, there has been talk of bubble arches ..........

    Will post pics occasionally.

    cheers, Paul

          The owner has rented this factory unit to build the car in, away from his buisness, it has the accoustics of a urinal ,not too sure what the next door neighbours will say when the grinder awakens from its rest ...

                    not a bad old thing this, i nearly bought it off mark before pauls m8 bought it, only thing stopping me was the dispute with the neighbour - but hes dead now

                    Good luck with it paul, we have seen what magic you can perform on a mk2 but now lets see you do it to a proper car
