Hi guys, just to let you know, I think I'm the other one of the four. I had my ones delivered right at the end of November. I had to be Andy to get another set out as I'd been saving any collecting parts for it for a year!

My one is getting a volvo T5 engine in the boot so should have some welly I hope!

Badrep, great to hear there is another build out there. Great engine choice!

Look forward to following your build as well.

Its going to be a lot of work, but I'm up for it.

Its my first kit, but to be fair its more of a body conversion than a kit, still, a great one for a first build!

I've got a build thread started on retro rides but will be in here too for the more kit type questions, and also in a volvo forum for the engine tech questions, though I've got most of them answered now

Here's a link to the rr thread http://retrorides.proboards.com/thre...-badrep?page=1

Sorry about the double post - my phones on the blink.

What i was writing was are there any build threads for a completed mrs200 build - I've had a search but couldn't find any completed ones - a few beginning of projects and a few mid projects but can't find any full builds!

Any links would be great

Er... I think you might have the back on the front...

Looks like a fun build - engine swap and body swap all at once is no small potatoes!

Badrep · #28 26th December 2016, 13:15

Ah yeah - that'll be the fitment problem!

It because i don't have the space in the garage - I want to do the engine swap first before the body so all is draped over the front end at the moment.

I don't want to hijack this thread so will stop posting here and will make my own one soon!
