Petrol Blue 182.
I've had this for a few weeks now as a replacement for the Vee. Already done quite a few things to it.
Sold the Vee as it was my house deposit and using it as a daily was putting too many miles on it. So off I went looking for a replacement to potter around in.
I looked at a couple of 182's but the majority needed belts doing on top of what people were asking for. I had a budget of 3k and I considered this to be healthy! I originally wanted RB or Inferno, but when this Petrol Blue came up for sale, I just couldn't pass at the chance of owning one of the rarest colours.
I drove to Nottingham the next day and a deal was made.
Althougth the paintwork is in reasonable condition and seems to be original, the car overall was in need of a tidy up, mechanically as well as cosmetically.
It wouldn't go into first gear properly and there was a hideous blow from the cat.
Have a look at my project thread to see how far it's come!

Still a few more bits to do yet.
Needs a couple of dents removing, detailing and the headlights need cutting back and polishing.
