The one problem that I can see at the moment is that after Lates has weaved their magic and the car is fully restored there will be nowhere to store it. Being the kindly sole that I am, I would willingly make a space on my drive. Of course any members that would like to see the finished product will be allowed at a small cost, 50% of which would be denoted to the club.

We have a V plate 1.8 classic in at work at the moment. It also has no aircon and wheel trims. It does however have walnut around the hazard/lock buttons?

If its any help the early V plate 75 is still in Hoppers breakers in witton, Birmingham. Still pretty complete. Engine, slam panel, rad, front bumper and head lights are gone but everythign else is there including the boot plinth. They're dirt cheap aswell so you should get most bits you need for peanuts.

I think we can confirm OVP has had a new engine fitted though. The one pictured is a post 2003/4 engine. Earlier ones as stated had black cam covers.

Would it not be warmer (and safer!), to just stay in the hall?
