Not yet Jeffrey, still a couple of jobs for the car - a new stainless exhaust (I ripped my new steel one in the car park :() and a new dashboard and heater control panel, which Nas will help me fit!

Hey Reck, any pictures of your new wheels on the car?
I've just got a new set and they're similar spec, although 7" at the front.
I'm wondering what the tyre sizes look like?

Good afternoon all! It's been about 8 years since I last logged in, glad to see my account is still active. :-)

Due to some life changes my car has been in storage for about 8 years or so. It was started and run occasionally in that time but only for a few minutes. I've taken it out of storage this weekend and had trailered to a garage for a few things;

* Fit new fuel tanks
* Replace all window rubbers and door seals
* Fit soundproofing and new carpet
* New powerflow exhaust
* Tidy up some bits of bodywork
* Small amount of welding to chassis rails underneath
* Fit new dashboard and heater controls
* Fit new rims per previous posts

Hopefully we will be back on the road in just a few weeks! :driving

Forum told me there was an update so logged in to see what was up. Hope you get the car up and running soon.

I wish I still had one of my E21's stashed away!

Hello mate! How are things?? Hope you and the family are all doing well. I often think about you when I drive past Crumpsall. :-)

Not there any more - an almost career ending dispute with management that led to a year off work. Very long sad story. Am now in Oldham.

Family growing like mad, three kids youngest 12 now, eldest wants a car next year.

Oldham Royal? That's where I was born. Hope they're treating you better. Still very grateful for the excellent treatment you gave my (now ex!) partner in Crumpsall A+E in a time of need. Glad to hear family are doing well.

If you ever want to scratch the E21 itch you are more than welcome to borrow mine for a few days once it is roadworthy again.
