Greetings (seasons and otherwise)

Post by Faux-7-0 »

Just to introduce myself - I'm Alan, I'm based in Reading, and I have a vision. Unfortunately, the current reality and the vision are still quite a way apart but I think you'll probably appreciate the start point.

I'll undoubtedly be seeking assistance/guidance in the future (as I'm certain it's not all there) but in the interim, any comments/advice/donations welcome.

Thanks for the welcome - the car was originally a basic 1972 318 but one of the previous owners obviously wanted a vanishing point look-a-like hence the 70 front end.

Probably going to take the mild custom route - Low, plum crazy, 440, black alloys but as ever, money talks, so we'll see.

You can't go wrong with plum crazy, best colour in my opinion :D I am going to open a can of worms now :drwho: I like small blocks in challys for handling purposes
