Hi I'm Tim W

Post by tjw89 »

Hi I'm Tim W 22year old based in the sunny old midlands.

Currently have a restored 1974 Innocenti Cooper 1300 Export in Monte Carlo red.
Also have a unmolested 1967 Cox GTM in the restoration stage, hopefully be completed with Alexander tuning parts if all goes well, if not may be another 60's tuning company.
Several other mini's under restoration/modification.
And a daily 1998 VW polo slammed half sensibly ( also into VW's :D ) and fancy getting an early VW varient/fastback/ early passat estate or something different to slam on the floor to feel the pot holes and beach on the sleeping policemen ha. :roll:

Really into the early tuning companies and all the parts and brochures they did, have a few bits and bobs but not that much :lol:

Also have a diamond back bmx ( another hobby of mine ) and want to get a mongoose and off road trails bike, if I stop spending me money on ebay.

Sadly no, I am always on the look out for older bmx's, but need to sort some space out incase I do get some.

Hi Tim,

I had my mechanics education, at VAG, here in Elsinore.
My everyday transport is done in a old VW Golf 3 .

If you are into old VW,s have a look at this one - its one of the last type 4 left in Denmark.

Still on its original Black Enemald reg plates, which is very rare, as plates are taken off, when a car is traded in, at a dealership,
and then replaced, by the current big White alloy plates :roll: when sold again.

Thats very nice JC, I have a freind who is seriously into his VW's an other different cars, and everytime I see one of his other cars I fall in love. Most of them are as low as they can go :D my current favourite next car would be a 1993 VW passat estate slammed on coilovers maybe on porsche fuchs wheels :)

Here's a link to my Innocenti Cooper 1300, restored by another member on here :)
