    yo


    this is a long term project i was building but due to problems im now having to sell it


    its a 1981 austin metro on a space frame holding a 2 litre 4 wheel drive subaru legacy engine


    heres the thread on retrorides for you to have a read


    Retro Rides - 1981 austin metro street sleeper......BRIAN


    comes with all wiring loom, ecu, metro doord, windows, wings, bonnet, and a front valance which is rotten (i was going to have one made when it came round to fitting it) also comes with spare steel that i havent used


    the space frame is tacked together incase that things needed to be adjusted my next step that i was going to do was to work out the bulk headso shell is tacked in place


    one is issue that i have stumbled across which is nothing major is the seating position will be further back then normal due to the chassis rail position


    im selling it for £500


    is a BIG project but will be well worth it when its finished and im gutted that i have to get rid


    i have v5 for the metro and keys for metro and subaru steering wheel


    based in north devon bideford


    and questions feel free to ask :)
