Title: Hey guys!! Looking bforward to 126 ownership.
Post by: jonny126 on May 22, 2012, 10:34:10 PM
Just wanted to say hi to all on here. Within the next week, me and the girlfriend will be acquiring a nice 126 BIS for a good sum. Only done around 20k, but has been off the road (unfortunately not garaged) for a fair few years now. There's rot in a fair few places, but all the structural points (chassis rails, wishbones, jacking points etc) all seem solid! Not too much trouble anyway, as it'll be a long term project.

Some pics of the car:

So as can be seen, he needs a bit of love and attention, but then he'll be on the road. I've got a fair few plans, but these will be sorted as soon as we pick him up and I can take measurements,

I'll start a project thread too, but for now, hi again, seems like a great forum from what I could see looking around, and can't wait to start work on him and being a part of 126 life!

Cheers!

Jon

Doesn't look too bad, hope you get it sorted soon.
