my m8 justin popped over today to show me his mk1 than he finshed restoring over many years.
he must have bought this mk1 over 16 years ago and ran it with a 2 litre and did track days at goodwood with her.
he stripped the car down years ago to restore and never got round to it and almost sold her a few times and when he moved house he decided that she had waited long enough.
he ripped the the fibreglass arched off and proceded to metal big wing her, turret , 5 link etc etc.
he bought the 16i seats off me at least 15 years ago and had them recovered 10 years ago and then put them in the loft
the only thing he didnt do himself was the paint.
i think he done a fantastic job on her and think it was worth the wait
i even sent the poor lad over to show mr bishop on his way home who was very impressed.
hes a member on here but dont think he posts much, so say hello to everyone justin and tell us a bit more about her
heres a few pics
