Location: Manchester		Hi folks,

New member here, just joined.

I have a Austin Metro Mk1 VDP I have owned for over a year now and thought I'd finally get around to joining!




Hopefully I'll learn a few things and speak to a few locals with some luck

Cheers,
Cliff

Ahh right, PM me sometime and we can arrange something for when you want to come around and I can show you around it a little more , and the other projects Haha.

Not too much planned other then de-rust, a few bits and bobs for the interior and exterior trim and drive as a daily soon after.


Hi Jack, yes that's the one!, seems news and pictures travel around quickly! . The install isn't the best, was installed by previous owner.

Location: Manchester		Thanks guys, I think a Like button is needed as well Haha.

Things to be done on it include the outer sills which I've bought and collected, a little bit of inner wing rust and front valance corners, which may turn into a bigger job!

Oh and sourcing someone to make a new headlining as the old one is like a piece of dust!!
