Recently retired and have decided to fade into the sunset restoring this early T6 1600

Not a bad way to fade away, make it look a bit outlaw to prove there is life left! Nice pair of cars.

Do you know what....if only I had the courage, it almost looks there as it sits

Yep, looks like plenty of space until I move this back in.......http://www.flickr.com/photos/95118177@N ... 224323020/

Cool truck, but yes that's going to take some space!

Nice set of cars (and work space for that matter). Looks like you're a fair way on with the T6.
Looking forward to seeing the progress on it.

Ant, I didn't sleep well last night thinking about an Outlaw. I'd like to keep the original engine block but how much power could I realistically push it to ? Better suspension and brakes....how difficult....who to do.

So many questions.......so little time !

Unfortunately I'm neither a 356 nor an engine modification expert. I do know that an Outlaw 356 edge is just so cool. I look forward to watching you weave in some unique touches as you finish the restoration. Good luck!

love the truck. But they are huge aren't they. When I brought my car over from the states I had a truck load of parts so I bought a truck to bring them over in.

here's me facing the wrong way on the motorway after a blow out on the trailer on the way back from Chatham........

before the incident.

Blimey.....that looks a bit hairy!

You were pretty brave driving an old truck back from the port given the Americans lack of MOT failures....
