(sorry if this post is in the wrong place lol)
So I've just written down all the things that need to be done to my VR to make her at least roadworthy, oh where oh where do I start?!
Lets start with a new alternator, fan belt, powersteering belt (?), air-con fix (don't know what's wrong with it atm), new exhaust system (I already have a brand new set of Genie extractors, just need the rest of it), new floor carpet, boot lining, odometer fix AND the dash around the speedo facia and aircon vents (it's got an ugly dvd player where the aircon vents should be)
Where the hell do I look for boot lining?... it's just bare metal in there right now, is that unroadworthy? I've had a squiz on eBay and there's a mob called All Car Carpet, boot carpet for $129+postage... is that an alright price? The same mob does floor carpet for $130+postage too.
My long term plans for my car are to eventually get it repainted, although I'll be on a bit of a budget so I might test out this famous paint-roller theory hey! And I'll eventually get a decent set of mags too.
I'll hopefully keep this thread updated as I go with pics etc, just so I don't make a new thread everytime something comes up.
xx Take care everyone

Here's some pics of the car from today, and also of the handy work that got her in that position lol
