brought another 172

[butch172]

Hi everyone,
I sold my last 172 to Deedee back in March this year just before I started my new job which included a company car. since then i've been looking for a project car to fill the gap that the clio left. By chance I was filling the company car up today when I spotted a little 172 sat at a dealer next to the petrol station, long story short, 1 hour later i was the proud owner of a 2002 mk2 ph2 172.
Will be stripping and tracking this one so will have interior, mint steering wheel and 5x standard wheels for sale very soon.
Cant wait to get it next wednesday and start enjoying it
Cheers
Chris

You can't keep away ! Bet you still make it as clean as your old one.

Hi Rich,
your right, can't keep away! hope you well.
this one is not as mint as the monaco one yet but will be good once I have spent some time on it. Interior is really clean but this is the only bit i'm not keeping.

BOUGHT!!!

Make sure you keep a blog of turning it into a road car to a track car. Love those kind of threads.

Good thanks, hope your well too. Dee is still looking after the Monaco.

Should make some good money then to spend on track related bits, will be fine when you paint it white then

If its a ph 2 fella, its called Iceburg Silver

 

[butch172]

thought iceburg had a blue tint to it, mine is just plain silver. might be wrong though!

 

[JR]

Iceburg has a slight tint to it yes, but changes very easily under different lighting.

Its defo Iceburg though bud.

 

[GarethM]
