I've been lurking here for a while and thought it was about time to say hello.

My names David and i'm in Harrogate North Yorkshire
I've recently bought a mk1 carlton estate to use as a daily driver which fits in nicely with my Opel manta addiction.

It looked like this when i first bought it,


After a little work for the MOT and a set of spare wheels i had it now looks like this


I have a few plans and idea's for it but i can't get it near my garage currently for all the manta's in the way.
So its getting used in standard form currently.
