Well i picked up my new 1200 sedan a few months ago now, found it on the site for a good price. So it time to start all over again.

My plans are... Just a nice clean 1200 in original looking on the outside BUT big power under the bonnet CA POWER... It was originaly auto, but im unsure whether ito leave it or go manual ? ? ? ? . As for the body.. im paint striping the body to bare metal and spraying it the original baby blue

Here some pics from when i first got my hands on it..

That's a pretty tidy starting point.

It's hard to believe that there are still so many good ones around.
