WHIZZ505 Posted October 7, 2014 Share Posted October 7, 2014 Good evening all, just a little intro, Ive found myself buying a Martian, a bit of an obsession since doing my apprenticeship with 93VDW REME. Its on its way home soon, and then the fun starts.... (To start it is just the first bit...) Whizz. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Starfire Posted October 8, 2014 Share Posted October 8, 2014 I went from a Toyota MR2 to an Alvis Saracen Mk 5. Sometimes you just have to jump in the deep end Cheers, Terry Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

WHIZZ505 Posted October 8, 2014 Author Share Posted October 8, 2014 Thanks for the warmest of welcomes!!! She's not in bad condition, just a non runner, and has been so since the last chap got her...... Call me mad but the first time I'll see her is when she comes to my yard/workshop!!! I never thought I'd have the chance to own a Martian of my own, so in at the deep end..... Shes all original, so will let you know when I do...... Engine bits will prob be first issue, then tyres.... Q. What is the right size? 1500/20 is in my head for some reason..... All hints and leads appreciated.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
