Not really a what i've got, as more of a what i've had!
I'll only put the interesting ones up (well the ones i've actually got photos of)
1969 Commer PB Autosleeper
I loved this van, she was perfect, i wish i still had her
VW RatRod
As purchased:
Rust removed and resprayed (sorry no pics of that process)
BMW 2002
Smoothed off and prepped for paint
Only pics i have of her painted
Early chrome bumper, aircooled Fiat 126
£100 budget drag car
Take a £20 Fiat Panda and add a free Civic
Do some of this
Add a pinch of this
Then it got nicked... End of that!
Finally my baby, i loved this car, i mean, i really loved this car. Lots of work, but she was worth it. Used her as a daily, she now resides in France used purely as a hillclimb car. Still to this spec, cut springs and all...
These pics are in timeline order
That is all...

I try mate,
Had some dodgy pub gas for the inner wings so its a bit rough, i'd of prefered not to plate and make whole sections up, but she was my daily so had to be ready to go work the next day. I made sure it had good penatration and was strong.
what a unique little collection i can totally understand the cutting of springs on these cars.
That Panda must have been insane!
Is that a Luce?

The panda would of been silly, it was made for under £100, very wide banded front steels, 1600cc vtec lump, stripped out. Was gonna be run down the strip for shits and giggles, but like i said, some pikey stole it and it was found in a yard down the road already with the shell spent from being lifted of the truck...
Luce? The Mazda? Its a 1300 mate, not sure what its called elsewhere, its a Familia in Japan though?
