Hello to all Soarer owners.

Most of you don't know me, and i don't blame you :-), i've only ever seen 3 or 4 faces from this forum. I"ll try and make it to the cruises more often this time.
Anyways i have just recently bought myself another Soarer, this is my 3rd one, i had big plans for the last one but because of insufficient funds, i had to sell it all.

but now i am back...... Its a 92 TT, its close to stock, fairly straight body and there is something wrong with the engine.....oh yeah and its not drivable, planning on a long self learning spiritual project hehehe

See you guys/gals around... cheers

I can't seem to upload the photos...

Thanks for welcoming me back

Here's a pic of the car, those plastic around windows is to prevent the rain from coming in, i put the windows down a bit to get some air in the cabin but then the battery went flat!

thanks Josh

How did you know the owner didn't look after it? you're right though! Interior is NASTY, the carpet has a big yellow stain, the seats are dirty, some parts are missing or damaged. Exterior is in reasonable condition, apart from the crack on the front bar, scratched on one of the side skirt and rear bar.

Engine oil doesn't look like its been change for a very long time, there's a build up of oil goo on the engine cap.

But......overall, not bad! just need a bit of time and money, hopefully not too much headache

With a bit of work this car will look A1. The kit looks good, just needs some TLC

Thankfully the mechanicals can take the abuse. It's everything else that'll be a pain in the butt to fix.

Never used to like this kit but now its starting to grow on me :-)

Everything is a pain is the butt i reckon, just need to be patient and calm.... both of which i am not very good at...
