my little collection

[mr5050]

been hooked on old vauxhalls since i was a wee sperm, i remember seing one of the first nova redtop conversions in max power when i could hardly read and have wanted one ever since! also loved the astra gte's as i got a lot of history with that car, so the last 4 years ive been collecting projects that basically im gonna keep till im old and greylol im in no rush to finish them as im sure the more the years roll on these little babies are going to be worth a pretty penny, only time will tell, anyways heres what ive got at the mo, and there could be another little beauty joining the pack next week:) its the first time some of these have been seen for years!

f reg mark 1, 22k full s/h, now with buckets, race tank/pump early redtop, mocal oil cooler, new rad, new astley hoses, new mtech conversion kit, new bilstein b12's, mint originall dash and headling, not fully striped out yet as i want to bring this back to original condition eventually

brand new mk2 gte shell, unstamped, still in factory primer with original factory part number stickers still in place. im going to build this back up into an original 16v with the odd upgrade to improve handling and braking etc

saw this little beut on the bay, turned out the fella lived 5 mins from me so went and had a look and he took my first offer! msa lob booked shell, an unbelievable amount of work has gone into this car, it really has to be seen to be appriciated, wide arch kit, full rollcage, full poly windows, fiberglass boot and bonnet, not to sure what im going to do with this yet, might go up for sale once its had a god spruce up
