new user hoping to build

hi guys,

ive decided to build a kit with my old man funds are tight so im on the lookout for an unfinished project already found one and left a message with and emailed the guy

now im about to be 19 been driving almost two years and i am used to rwd (first car was a matt black used and abused 2.0 capri)

im planning on a 2.1 pinto 4speed box and wil have to have an lsd

im not fussed either live axle or irs and hope to have ti done by this time next year or sooner

im in the process of selling the capri and some other bits and bobs and if this guy rings back about the mostly complete unfinished project i will be going to the bank to get out a loan (lol nnot the best idea i know but its what im looking for ! )

just thought i would say hello as i will no doubt have alot of questions !

Good idea to put a location on your profile, you never know, someone nearby might be able to donate a few parts to the cause!

Welcome to the forum etc.

Oh, a loan paid for my car mate! Best thing I've spent borrowed money on!

Having helped my stepdad build a locost before and it to be written off 12miles into our first drive by some idiot not looking where he was going i decided to buy a pre built car. took a loan out earlier this year over 3years and bought my MK! I'm only 20 and absolutely love it. the amount of looks i get everywhere i go in it, and the jealousy you get from middle aged men who cant take seeing a young "whipper-snapper" in a car they would love to own! My parents encouraged me to buy the MK as they said "enjoy having toys like this now, because when you first get on the property ladder and have kids you wont be able to afford it" haha. Wise words. Anyway, i hope you find a good kit and get it out ready for next summer. Just taken mine off the road for the winter and wish i could have just one last drive!
