Welcome to what is sure to be one head ache from the next for me building and you reading!!!
Firstly, lets start with a little about my car.
I bought this off a chap on mr2oc for the grand sum of £200 taxed and tested. It had a known alternator problem and an unfortunate collision with a micra...... i know right?? which left the passenger door and wing dented. Other wise a cute little car.
Since owning it i have fitted a fujitsubo exhaust (thanks mr t!), replaced the alternator (thanks chris!) and tidied the interior with some very clean leather seats.
This is her as she stands:
I must say im happy, well until the poxy n/a engine decided it didnt want to play ball anymore!!!
so that bring me to this project thread.
With very little persuasion i have been convinced a v6 is right for me. i mean this is my spiritual home after all!!! lets face it if your reading this your not exactly sane either are you! .....
With a little poking around i ws eventually put in touch with a chap called russell (bodgesport connection!) and soon we were talking pennies.
Money is to be exchanged tomorrow making me the proud owner of a 3.0 v6 93 cammy!! providing all is well after that i will then take delivery this coming sunday (2nd june) and begin the process of removal and stripping the car to make some money back.
Delivered its costing me £385 which seems nice and reasonable!
So watch this space for (hopefully) regular updates and photos and im sure stupid questions!
(project title is a utilization of my number plater btw :))
