Good afternoon gents,
I have lurked on the forums for a few months and thought it was about time i introduced myself.
My name is Alan and i have been hankering after a project for many years. Unfortunately my enthusiasm far outways my fabricating and engineering skills and kit cars always seemed a pipe dream. Having seen the exocet review on a thread on pistonheads i did a bit more research and decided that it looked like an excellent way towards learning some new skills and stepping into kit car building!
Fast forward a few weeks and i am the proud owner of a White J reg Mk1 Mx5 with 187,000kms. It had just had new cambelt, rear discs and hood, looks pretty straight and cost me the princely sum of £600! It does have a rather striking red and black interior and some non gen 17" alloys but nothing to worry about.
I am going to start stripping it down as i get time and will speak to MEV once i have saved a few more pennies for the kit!! I look forward to becoming part of the forum, and picking your brains/ sharing my experiences!
Regards
Alan
