Wow this is kinda awkward......4th project since i've been on the site (not my fault though)

Anyways on with the show..... I shall start from the begining-ish



Well this car belonged to my brothers girlfriend but about 2 months ago she was driving through a blind bend in the country lanes and had to avoid hitting another car coming the other way.....long story short she hit the mud bank and it broke the steering

Now the front wheels point different ways....a bit difficult to drive
Since its just been parked up waiting to be fixed

So i've decided to buy it and fix her up its going to cost £100 for buying and fitting the part, then MOT and Tax needs to be sorted

The reason its called "rub-a-dub" is because....well just look at the number plate (begging to be lowered )


Here's some pics:




hehe only messin












you might be able to see from those pics that the wheels are






Oooo feel the powerrrr














Gonna keep this sticker as its gonna look a bit odd on a rat car







I've got some plans cooking.....don't wanna give too much away just in case someone steels the ideas and does it before me

YYYYYAAAAAAAAYYYYYYYYYY!!!!!
Bout time you got this thread started!!
Right, you got a lot of catchin' up to do so get rattin'

WOOP ! , nice one . get it rattttyyyy updates to come me thinks


RAGE

well sophers, i couldnt have picked a better car myself

and yeh on the power note, did you not see my bog standard 1litre carbed micra beat everything it came up against on the track, thats the engine im planning to drop in mine, are nippy little buggars if you treat them right.

get yourself on the micra sports club!!!

oh and get your rat on!!!!

I was gonna say before alex beat me to it, don't underestimate a small engine with 16valves. Jamz's is only a 1.0 but with 16v, and it bloody shifts through the lower gears hehe

Nice one Sophers

My mate had one just like it, like Alex and Matt have said nippy little cars.

Cant wait to see the progress.

Yay! Finally

Has that bump muffed up the drive shafts at all tho??

Nope luckily

Hehe, bought these tonight

I'm getting the keys for the car tomorrow (well later on today then ) ......then work shall begin

my mate used to have one exactly the same as that, it was fast for a 1.3! indestructable aswell, he crashed it twice and it wouldn't die

I hope a slamming is on its way once the rest is fixed

Lots of rust please

That sticker is sweet

Glad to see youve got another project .

ratty JDM yo

looks like a good base, well when youve got it fiskd

As Churchill the dog says "OHH YESS"

I reckon a mini JDM/Bosozoku/Rat ride should be on the cards

Mind reader

that would be effing schweet

Damn , As I was reading this thread I was thinking the same thing ! Sophers , I can't keep up with all these different projects of yours !

You know the 1.6 engine from the almera bolts straight up to the micra gearbox Couple of customised engine mounts and loom splice/swap. BOOM! 98bhp

Have a few micra pics to make up for lack of time spent on here lately ....
