As a new member I thought I would introduce myself and tell you a bit about me…..

Im kyle and im from Rochdale (Manchester area)

Cars so far

Rover 214si – crashed
Corsa 1.2 with more fibreglass than a fecking boat on it – crashed
Saxo westcoast – yellow – awesome but French lol
Golf 2.0 mk3 cabriolet
Corsa 1.2 vegas
Astra 1.7 diesel – blew engine
Clio 1.2 – snapped cambelt
Fiat bravo 1.4 – shattered cam shaft
Mitsubishi pajero 3.0 V6 – animal but thirsty
Borrowed ma old saxo now but head gasket gone so its stripped on my drive lol.
Im also a qualified electronics engineer and work for a garage equipment company – workshop solutions / Junair Spraybooths, so if you need a lift with any gear or wiring let me know

I am pretty good with most things mechanical n a dab hand at welding.

Once the missus passes her test hopefully in January I will get her summat sensible to drive my daughter around and I can get the nova I always wanted. Any one with any cheap(or free) shells or cars gimme a shout.

Cheers
kyle

I'm sure Lee H in Oldham has a xe shell that needs welding, that he wants moving but I don't think its rolling

haha the car history is funny, i thort they were all going to be crashes after i read the first 2. some free shells do come up rarely, but you should be able to get one for a decent price, just keep your eyes pealed on the "Cars for sale"
