New project...

Post by Rich H » Sun Feb 11, 2007 8:12 pm

Right, I passed my tests so I have 2 weeks of winding up Carphone Warehouse stores then I'll be released upon the general population (!)

As a result I will be working 3 Saturdays out of 4 and 1 Sunday out of 4 so I need a new project. I get 2 days off a week so they will mostly be a weekday and a Sunday. She will claim the Sunday, but I need a project for the rest of the days off. I would continue on the Liz but she is getting to the point where I would need to spend some serious money for any gains.

The idea so far is a Porker 924 in need of some TLC but lacking a garage this may be a non-starter (In more ways than one!).

Budget is flexible but under £1k would be good.

I'll also need a list of excuses for the g/f too or its curtains for me! :chainsaw

How about getting an elise that was recently in a low speed crash with a vectra and doing it up?

Find a Mazda MX5, with a knackered engine for under £1K. I have the ideal engine & gearbox for it :wink:

Nah I like the 924 idea, galvanized body, van engine and RWD for peanuts. :D
