with the intention of offering her a couple of hundred quid to take it as it is but...........
When I saw the look in her eyes and saw how much she still loves the car I couldn't do it so instead I offered to help do the car up
I bow to you sir.... this is awesome....
:adora: 
:clap: :clap:This is why i love this club......

what Skiny said

toyota sera
if you find a reasonable one cheap, let me know and I'll do it, then again if you find a cheap one it will sit in the Greenock Toyota museum
Beams a Nissan Figaro
would rip it apart haha....... but someone should do an SR20 RWD Figaro..... that would be cool......hmmmmm
d ithi mate, that madness was created over here in N.I. by a car nutter
the engine was removed after it ran a few times and the last i heard it was going into an olde skoool vauxhall marina for diffing comps 
did it ever actually drive? looks like most of the wheel wells were cut out to fit the engine........ did they bolt the hubs directly to the box.....looks tight as fook!
Still my favourite option a Yaris......am concerned about the balance of the car however, thinking the Beams will be too heavy for the front of the little bus....
still fancy Prius, lots of weight savings to be had by throwing out the duracells, bigger chassis, major embarrasment to all the scooby / evo crew.....cant find a cheap one however......
-
in abby`s bay would be nice
even the right colour!

Old school Land Rover.....Beams power off road
Too heavy, Beams loves lightness!
Land Rover again perfect for Lexus V8
Now thinking I should buy lots of LS400's.....
-
old British street sleeper would be cool as......
Austin 1100 with a Rover V8 (or better and muuuuch cheaper Lexus V8!).....
Hmmmmmm...

This was someone on here? who????
Love all the comments guys n gals!
However should maybe have been more specific! I am a true Scotsman and don't like spending cash.......
Current Mistress cost £250, as she stands today has cost probably just over £3K but on a daily basis beats £20K Beemers and once a £30K+ Jag......needs to be a cheap donor as it really only works if I have that edge, hence thinking cheapo yaris.
The Carina would be cool, but as heavy as a Celica so no real win....
Briano, let me know if you see any cheap Prius, that would be awesome ( weight reduction removing all the Duracell would be a win, and the only race Prius I have seen are Jap and Yank!)
Keep the ideas coming peeps, love you all!!

are we talking a proper mini or a BMW half series adaptation?
and Cleario, the Beams in discussion is a Red top, as such Front wheel drive....
-
Various thoughts in my head currently, what is the point of spending lots of earth monies installing a Beams engine into a rusting Gen6 Shell, I can buy a fully equipped Beams one for same(ish) price....
which leaves a dilemma! where to house the Beams I have.....
Corolla been done....
What about a Yaris? may have to transfer a lot of running gear and make widebody to accomodate running gear...
personally would love to dessimate a Prius!......
I throw this open to the house for discussion!

Edinburgh is a mare Dan, even the bypass and the M8 and dead slow when I go home.....if you are getting 400 miles on open road then would say car is fine!
I'm getting less due to hitting the loud pedal once I get on the M9 / backroads!

I have a liftmaster 1.5 tonne, 65mm Aluminium jack, It has lived in the car since she was built (for blyton), only weighs 16kg. only thing about it is it only lifts to 330mm.
Great bit of kit think it cost about £90

I take it the name Skiny is ironic else why would he be at such a hideous excuse for a 'food' outlet....
at least however he tried!

So the next challenge IS?
Finding Daytona by the looks of it!

I will try to dig mine out and measure them, I know they are different from Tein.

From Daytona
Am I alone in thinking this would make a good jigsaw......

would suggest getting a battery charger before you go spending hard cash on a battery, it may not be dead! Battery chargers can be bought for under £20, considerably cheaper than a battery.
Also if it needs one, find a local motor factors and price one there, you will find it much cheaper than Halfrauds and the staff will have better knowledge also!
Goog luck!

from what I have been reading, there should have been enough Saharan sand down there to strip everything clean!

before the Mot, my mechanic goes nuts on the car with a hammer and a screwdriver, much harder than any MOT tester ever will, at the end of the day, I take my kids out in the car and would rather have this.
the only rot he ever found was the 2 small (3" square) plates he repaired when I first Mot'd her 2 years ago!
Get it fixed!

Tin snips will destroy the edge which is no good for a 'Dress Panel' unless you are willing to spend too many hours dressing it. Grinder will 'burn' the cut edge and if leaving it polished, will not be suitable.
Either way, Dremell (or similar drill attachment) would be best as will require less dressing to look pretty.
As it is intended as a dress panel, you cannot use basic mechanical metal cutting tools!
May be worth looking at local engineering works just to give a price comparison.
Me? i would Dremell and spend the time honing the rough edges and paint to suit.

If you dont need the shell, Hi-Ab it to where you want it.
