Topcat 52 Posted August 15, 2005 Posted August 15, 2005 My Husband and I are finally collecting our Westie Kit on Wednesday and really excited about getting started, it seems like forever since we had our test drive and placed the order. Quote
Dave Eastwood (Gadgetman) Posted August 15, 2005 Posted August 15, 2005 Brilliant; the night before I went to collect mine was like Christmas Eve as a little 'un all over again. Had a big grin all the way back after collecting it. Quote
Blatman Posted August 15, 2005 Posted August 15, 2005 What you getting? Andy I'm guessing a Westfield... Quote
adhawkins Posted August 15, 2005 Posted August 15, 2005 Had a big grin all the way back after collecting it. And eventually, you get to drive it. The idea of a build doesn't particularly appeal to me (not that mechanically inclined I'm afraid) but it must be a great feeling when you first get to jump in and take it for a drive... Andy Quote
Topcat 52 Posted August 15, 2005 Author Posted August 15, 2005 We are getting an SEi. we are using a Granada as a donor. Can't wait to get started. Julie Quote

Andy Yep, build 'cause you want to build, not just to get a car. I really enjoyed it though, I think I'm starting to get post build withdrawal symptoms Perhaps if I took it all apart and put it back together again.... Quote
Topcat 52 Posted August 15, 2005 Author Posted August 15, 2005 We are putting a 2ltr pinto engine in it. Quote
adhawkins Posted August 15, 2005 Posted August 15, 2005 Good luck with it, there's loads of help to be found here should you need it! Andy Quote
markcoopers Posted August 15, 2005 Posted August 15, 2005 hey gadgetman, I've a project for you......... Quote
ibakes Posted August 15, 2005 Posted August 15, 2005 Welcome aboard had my Pinto on the road for a year now, and well chuffed with it, dont rule out XE or Zetech power tho Quote
KerryS Posted August 15, 2005 Posted August 15, 2005 hey gadgetman, I've a project for you......... Having seen Mark's car at Mallory, I can only marvel at the guy's sense of humour. You're an inspiration M8 <!--emo& Kerry S PS oh and good luck with the build, BTW, I went the easy way with a module build, you have my undying admiration for what you are about to do Quote
Topcat 52 Posted August 16, 2005 Author Posted August 16, 2005 The Garage is now all boarded out ready to collect our Westie tomorrow, and yes we have even made room in there for a fridge as I feel we may be needing the help from a few cans of Stella. Quote
