seabiscuit Posted May 3, 2009 Report Posted May 3, 2009 Had to shuffle some cars around the other weekend to get the one out of the back of the shed. Went in for a cuppa and looked out my kitchen window to admire the great veiw !! Weather's not lookin' too good. :D Those are some nice cars! I like the triumph :) What's the superliteless car? Quote
Gavclassic Posted May 3, 2009 Author Report Posted May 3, 2009 Weather's not lookin' too good. :D Those are some nice cars! I like the triumph :) What's the superliteless car? The Superlite less car is the little LA Lancer, posted pics of the before and afters earlier in this section, than one has now moved on. The Watanabe alloys on triumph i actually bought for my RT72 1900 SL Corona but the Trumpy has the same stud pattern so on they went. I'll post pics of the Mini soon!, had that one for 22 years !!!... Quote
Gavclassic Posted May 4, 2009 Author Report Posted May 4, 2009 that mini is cleaaaaan, more pics? nice collection :) Here's the mini, had this one since 1987, finished the resto back in the earlie 90's. Quote
Gavclassic Posted May 4, 2009 Author Report Posted May 4, 2009 This is why i had to do a car shuffle so as to get the Anglia out, had this one stored for nearly 11 years so thought it was about time to do something with it !! Quote
Gavclassic Posted May 4, 2009 Author Report Posted May 4, 2009 And here's one i purchased on Ebay in October 07 from Victoria, 1975 MS85 Super Saloon , all the power options and only about 154,000kms, its such a great cruzin car, i can't get over just how good a car it is to drive !!.. It came standard with dual air con, power steering, power windows, AM/FM radio cassette, central locking, intermittent wipers, antenna built into the front screen, day night interior rear view mirror and a super smooth 2.6 6 cylinder engine !!..

Turbo is a IHI RB6, came of a KB Laser Turbo. I have a boost control switch on the gear stick, either 8psi or 12psi, dynoed at near 100hp at the wheels. Its alot of FUN !!! Quote
silverra23 Posted May 5, 2009 Report Posted May 5, 2009 How big is the shed exactly Gav??!! So many great old machines emerge from it :lol: Quote
ke30dude Posted May 5, 2009 Report Posted May 5, 2009 Love the old MK1 triumph, mum used to have a grey one, it had been around the clock twice before the rear main gave out and mum killed it. That was back in 91' and mum still misses that car. Quote
