Location: Earl shilton, leicestershire		lol it won't fit I've been studying it for 3 nights the only big engine that will fit is out the Citroën gs its only a 1100cc which is shit so want a metro to replace the one I got rid of to fund this project and to be honest its worse than I thought the body work rots like no tomorrow and its so plain its like the model t ford its so boring I had to get my phone out to listen to music I like having music blaring In the background so getting a Austin metro to replace this waste of time project don't no why I decide to take it on I'm a trainee mechanic and its abit much for my first project will scrap it.....
