Jessopia74 Posted June 5, 2022 Share Posted June 5, 2022 Nice, technically my very first car I owned, 1.2 in the baby blue, just never drove it far as was waiting on my pass cert so I could get the insurance . However I swapped it for my first manta 1.9 SRB Auto and the rest is history as they say 😎 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

IanG Posted June 5, 2022 Share Posted June 5, 2022 All I wanted back in the day was a HB GT or a Chevette HS, started saving then had to use that for a mortgage deposit. On the up side I could sell the house, buy both and live in a tent, wonder if the missus would be up for that? 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

One of my mates bought a 1800 Magnum, around 1981, when we lifted the bonnet it had a Firenza HPF lump in it, went like stink. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
