lol car is sooooo cool mate. more pics tho

there is Chris Jones, Steve Jones's Brother, he was on the box the other week in the Amazon.

my mum has been in contact with these guys, she is friends with one of the directors of the place, he used to have a proper Lim Ed V8 black with gold stripes. immaculate. but they are the last option as she would like to do some of the work herself. if they take it, it would be a good job and done to a good standard. she wants a little hands on. this just a feeler for now TBH. but she would like to know if there were any places that could do the proposed engine and bodywork

afternoon people, my mum has a nice MGB GT V8 in her garage and im really sad to say that its a wreck. she used to use it as a daily drive but got slowly less reliable. this is what the car should look like now she soon to be getting a new garage built and with a little money from her pension has the intention of getting it back to its best. she is a bit of a spanner monkey as she (and my dad) built up from a bare shell a normal MGB GT. she is getting on a bit and i would like the formal glory of this awesome car restored. what i was wondering if there was any people that could store the car fairly local and could possibly do some of the work on the car. preferably people that have had experience with this sort of lazy V8. i believe that the engine will need some looking at before turning her over as it may have seized due to it not being started in a few years. the main problem she had was overheating. she spent ages trying to diagnose the problem but to no avail. also she was going through manifolds, which were not that robust. is there any companys that could make a manifold just from the original taken off and used as a guide. it will also need some bodywork done too. most of it is sound and only really needs taking back and respraying. i would love her to get it back on the road as it was a Limited Ed and would be a shame to see it rusting away. any help would be appreciated.

don't care, nothing can bring me down from my current 'walking on air' mood!!!

seems like a very good deal. all of those parts are available on here, much cheaper than the dealers

two pairs of grips. one on the valve shaft and one in the cap. twist in the appropriate direction but keepping the valve shaft stable.

yes, agreed. sod the lotus carlton off and had a new GTR! i knew they didnt make many but WOW, all that much money! dont think so. fantastic car tho!

"im sorry Michael, i am not permitted to do doughnuts round Sainsburys carpark." i have seen a FULL replica of KITT in south london before. IT WAS AWESOME! . i was so jealous of the guy driving it. even tho he did look like he had just fallen from the 1980's.

saw this and thought it would look wicked when complete. http://www.autotrader.co.uk/classified/advert/201019358577283/sort/priceasc/usedcars/make/pontiac/radius/1500/postcode/sm39sn/keywords/v8/page/1?logcode=p if i had the money and the space to do this i would probably have a go! awesome if finished.

yup, they forgot to activate it, and exactly the same that happened here!! lol

Exactly, usually when items like this come out in the States we pay the same value in pounds as they do in dollars so we are getting a far better deal than usual. I bought the missus an iphone on pay as you go for her birthday and cost roughly £450 from Orange. Now you can get the 32GB ipad for a few quid more..... holy crap, all my missus got was some garage flowers and a hug! after that i told her my other present was to see my smile when dinner was put in front of me! (awaits the backlash)

ouch! that must have hurt (the company name) just imagine the rant at the guys setting it all up!!

mate feel ure pain!!!! i had my clio back from some front end work. picked it up at 5.30pm on thursday and at 10.15 on friday, some silly tw@t drove into it. . i had it back for just over 12hrs and she scraped all down the passenger side. i was luck i was near the car when i happened, other wise she would have definitely bugger off and not said anything, as her response was "oooh sorry i didnt hear any thing but i thought i was a little close!" i nearly bit my tongue off when she said that! bad times!

very sweet looking Azure Coupe, sort of in a world of my own trying to find a parking space. waved at the guy sort of.

hahahah, this is well funny! but some people on there are very hostile! they seem to not like many things LOL good to see u have taken it all as a joke!
