Found this forum through a YouTube video that came up on my recommended list of a Lotus MK1 Cortina restoration, it led me over here to a thread by chap foose.
Thought I'd say hello.
I have an old 1970's Nissan hidden away in a garage about 100 miles West of hear. Once upon a time it was a race car in Japan, it blew up, was parked up and forgotten about for over a decade before I dragged it out of hibernation, shipped it across the world and hid it away, a year later I joined it, although 100 miles away. I've been squirrelling parts away ever since while I've been renovating and building my home in the UK. Almost done, garage next and then I'll bring the car home and maybe get some time to work on it. :thumbs:

Welcome to the forum - maybe you would like to introduce the said vehicle with a thread in the members cars / projects section - we are always interested - pics go down well too - several of us on here are also renovating / building our castles / homes & garages as well - meanwhile Rich over in France manages somehow to convince everyone that they ought to pay him for renovating their properties :lol:
