Hi guys
Just stole a 1999 VR4 from a bored and tired owner …
Previously owned for 15 years … in storage for 11 years , so loads of things need doing to get it back to former glory … ££££s
It will be a slow process , but hoping to be out and about for 2017 , maybe
Ive seen the pictures from Thorseby shows , i usually go in the old Escort , but maybe next year , who knows
Ive been in touch with a guy called Rob from Evil Empire for some bits , and he was ever so helpful,
Pictures to follow

Hello and welcome!
Well i recieved my bits from Rob, thanks dude
Also new timing belt kit fitted, All brakes serviced or re-newed ,waxoyld in the doors, ( did i say we are used to fords ) lol
Gave it a good Meguiars wash and polish , and the old man is in love with her
Still got a few bits to get , but i believe we bought a good 1
The previous owner has has sent a message through the channels that they want to buy it back when its finished …
Fat chance
I reckon wheels will next ont list, maybe some 18" RX8 5 spokes for christmas
Oooooo yeh 
Cheers for all the welcomes 
Few more jobs … jobbed
Car has now had a full service, plugs (wotatwattodo) , oils + filters , etc
Ive got 2 door mirrors to have painted in black , then get them fitted
I had the car on the LAUNCH reader , as Ive got an O/S/F ABS light on , so i stripped the front wheel arch down to fix and waxoyl
Ive ordered some POR15 from Frosts to sort the 10 year old top rust out underneath,
The thing is i found 3 plugs under the wing , going nowhere ,from the loom , they are near the ABS Unit , 2 had the wire loop so as not to upset the ECU
Anybody shed any light on them , everything seems to work fine without …
Update time …
No MOT as yet , but Wheels arrived last week, so pics pics pics …
Well 1 anyway
Maybe gunna get lowered
+= More money
Looking Good John 
Well
MOT Today , It was not pretty
Brake pipes need sorting, and a few plates need making for the floor / sill rot
It looks like a labour of love underneath , most things have rust on them , but it looks like its been caught just in time , a quick scrub with the wire brush , and most of the top rust is off
Any way , av a pic
It takes sometime and a lot of effort 
Smokin was a wreck in the boot, anything can be welded and brought back then last ages again.
Good luck 
Been a while …
Had the rear bumper off and Treated with rust eater
Its not as bad as it looks , bit of surface rust cleaned up quite easily
Once The Rust Eater was dry, A quick smothering of Waxoyl was applied to every surface
And then some … just for good measure
So , Motors now ready for another 19 years of British weather
