jonny6627 · 09-02-2014, 20:14

Just thought i`d pop on here and say hi

Well its my first day in a 4wd after buying an old 98 2.7 touring in dr2 over silver,and i must say im impressed with the old girl . ive got the task of the bubbles on front wings,and a couple of plates on rear inner arch which isnt difficult,but it has been looked after for the past eight years by an old couple. looking forward to starting the work on it. hope to meet some likewise members this year

Howdy, a warm welcome from me

Got any pictures of the old girl?

The wings are notorious for Roy, as is the underside. If she is clean treat her now to prevent. As I say every time everyone on this forum is very helpful and there's a whole bunch of knowledge

Good luck

yep roy loves the wings, usually chicken ones

welcome aboard, the wings do like to ROT as do the sills and rear seatbelt mounts but all easy jobs if you can weld or know someone that can, plenty off great info on here

Welcome to the site.
Where in Staffs are you?

We seem to be doing a fair few welcomes to new members this week.

So who's spreading the rumours that we are due for some snow?

We wish...

Hi butt from south Wales

jonny6627 · 09-02-2014, 22:42

OMG!!!

Cant believe how many replies ive had, lol thanks for the warm welcome!! i will put some piccys up when i get time ,its pretty much standard, i bought it with full service history, and yes ,the rear seat belt mounts on both sides have gone so i expect i`ll be stripping the carpet and seats out ready to plate. just looking at mig welders on the bay, although i am a competent welder. may as well just buy a new welder just in case anyone else needs to use it hehe

Im from a little village called gt wyrley by cannock chase, nice to see another local. ive bought the old girl to tow a caravan,and my daughters horse trailer occasionally, but i do hope it snows!!!!!!

i will join as a full member tomorrow night

AlexD333 · 09-02-2014, 22:59

Becoming a full member is a great step, I did before I bought my terrano. You also get full access to the downloads section (great if your handy with a spanner)

Nice to meet ya anywho and look forward to some pictures.
