Picking up a bb4 with no sunroof today 8-)
Needs welding which will be getting done this week and I can finally get all the parts I've been hoarding for the last 5 years !

Going to be my nice daily while Akahana is getting everything done over the years.

I will add pictures shortly,

She's going to be one sexy lude in a few weeks

that should be a lot of parts getting shipped out the house and onto the new lude - always a good move imo :)
get some pics up before you start work on it ;)

Finally, got back home with the lude yesterday :)

I had to make two trips to get it as it wasn't able to tow with a tow bar after we blocked the rear lines due to the seized calipers, we bled the system for the front and got some pressure ... but the front lines were corroded so they gave out and bent the tow bar!

Ditched it in a golf course car park and drove back to Scotland from Wales .. without my lude :(
..


So went down with the A frame and my bros truck two days later, and half way there I realized I forgot to bring the BLOODY KEYS !!

Fml right !?
So we were in luck.. because preludes are so easy to get into it's scary !

I had to unbolt the steering column so the wheels could turn independent with the A-frame.

But we got it home safe and sound

Building the steering column back up tonight then I can get pics of the interior :)

It a Mistubishi Asti rs :)

Very rare, its my brothers, he went over to ireland for it..
Its basically a coupe colt, but has the same rear light and boot lid as an evo 5/6.

He also another one thats a bit special :)
He bought an evo6 and choped it up and and put everthing onto the asti including engine and full running gear and made a 3 door evo :)
