hugh's tassie II's

hi everyone
Iv been floating around this site for a few years and finally thought id share my cars.
I have two rego'd mk2's and a rot bucket I'm slapping up as a cheap khannacross hack, i'm justifying this as a mesure to keep my licence..
 
the 1600 L was my grandma's best friends car and i used to get ice cream in it when i was young. she got it new and looked after it well. I am the second owner. its got new bushes, shocks, steering rack alternator and starter and is a real please to drive!

    i bought a rot box with bonus flinstone holes that will be a khannacross cheap hack, i dont think there is a straight panel on it! its a manual pinto that im going to bump up my mechanical and welding skill with. as i mentioned i hope this car will mean i keep my licence.
