Well thought it was about time for me to put some information up about me and my cars... so far ive only had three cars,
My first was a dyane called denzel, learnt to drive then got rid of him (not fond of dyanes really).
Second was a 2cv- originally a plum and custard dolly but i was bored one day at university so i decided to paint her very badly. I mean BADLY. took me a day or two.
in the end decided to get rid of her so i had room for the van and scrapped her and sold parts and kept chassis etc.
then my third car is willy my van. given to me for free about a year ago now a guy hhad it dry stored for ten years plus in his garage and decided he didnt have the time or space to keep it. so i went and got it with my dad. it was a bit of a mess though.
it was found in a scrap yard by the guy. and the people had manged to put as high as they could by throwing a chain thru the car and picking it up. therefore major damage on the sills, door frame and rear window surrounds. i wouldnt be nowhere if it wasnt for my dad welding it etc as i have no knowledge of that in any shape or form.
still the van is very unfinished as i have no money or space. (its not fair you all having these massive garages etc. all i have is the side of the road. i dont like working on it there.)
so thats it at present. still needs a lot of work. complete new paint job i think. or a new layer. interior. audio. wiring etc. little extras and removals.

Good that you saved it from the scrapper. It's always the cars that you bring back from the dead that linger in your heart (I'm a sentimental old fart).
I like what you did with the wheels and the general colour of it.

Money (or lack of it) is a bitch. But space is no excuse. There is lots of space outside, just look at my front yard...

I have two places in parking place... But my friend has this "garage" where most of my photos is taken... And in my friends place, there is almost all tools, welding machine and lifter...
This shows how my summer began... Exhaust valve of rear cylinders just got stacked, it was machined too tight. Perfect start to summer..!
