Well whenever you're ready mate. I'll PM you directions and my number in case you get lost.

Ok well B2U is next in line to try and arrange a collection lol. But if he doesn't then it's yours.

If you still have them in 8 days I'll have them off you (waiting for a cheque to clear)

I don't go anywhere atm as my car is off the road :( and french :( :( lol

My postcode is RG20 9JY

My neglected oxy-propane welder. Now I'm back using a MIG I have no need for gas welding. It's a bit dusty and as I have no history on the regulators/hoses/valves I can't charge anything for it. It does work though. It's out of oxygen and almost out of propane, replacement gas bottles...

Calm down ladies, no need to fight.

Oh right, nothing you can do really then. If you're gunna go to all the trouble of cutting mounts and chassis legs you may as well go for a rear engine conversion. Weld the front of the donor car into the back of the micra.

Can't the water pump be modified to rotate round out of the way? Or is the whole thing in the way?

Cutting the chassis isn't a problem IMO. There's space to add a reinforcing plate. A 10mm thick plate welded/bolted to the length of the chassis leg would do it :p Old cars had unboxed chassis legs and they were ok (ish) so if you beefed up the area around the cutout it'd be almost as strong as...

Well, I have a few job interviews so as soon as I get a job or save enough JSA I'll insure it, buy 4x yokohama a.drive tyres, tax it and I'll be good to go.

As it's not being driven atm I took all the stereo and whatnot out. I also take the steering wheel off.

Want it to be comfortable to drive so all mods now will be for driver comfort, 8 inch longer gearstick, steering wheel will be a bit lower.

Lol yeah, I don't wanna spend money on it but then I don't wanna be seen driving it in its current state. Can't spend too much though, I'm saving up to do a Microcar Virgo motorbike engine conversion now I've found a supplier for the subframe.

Yeah, it does look kinda mean, I dunno what's up with the bonnet, it sits about 2 inches in front of the headlights/grille.

Nice little project you got there, new bumper time I guess, too much hard work fixing the one on there. Get a nice chunky bodykit :p

In the hope that people might mistake it for a good car I've flipped the front badge, and took the stickers off the boot. The car also came with no parcel shelf so some leftover 18mm ply, some carpet and a nail gun later and I had this: Smoooth:

Could you wrap IMG tags around the links so we don't have to click each one? :)

I wish I knew how to make the wiper sit upright. Then it would be a touring car right?

The back wheels sit central in the arch now, where I jacked the front up and dropped it back down the suspension was stretched, after I let of the handbrake it dropped back to where it should be.
