I thought it would be a good shout to introduce myself before I scurry off to the parts/cars for sale area looking for the parts my car needs!
I collected a BX break last year that needed quite a bit of welding plus some other bits, I already had a few projects on the go but it was free to a good home and I've always wanted one so I figured it wouldn't hurt to pick away at it around the other projects. I rented a recovery truck, and my partner begrudgingly rode shotgun to help with loading at the other end.



Being unused to the BX I didn't realise it would settle on the deck so quickly during our journey, luckily no harm done! I've since bought a twin axle trailer with a flat bed so shouldn't have to worry about that going forward mind.
Since landing back with me the main things I've done with it is give it a good clean inside and out, remove the interior to check the floorpans, and identify the parts that need replacing and the areas that need welding. We have a lot of other cars on the go so the BX has been on the back burner since then, however the intention was always to use this as our go to for long haul travel as my partner is Slovakian and before Covid we would find ourselves driving across the continent regularly as we prefer road trips to flying. The Honda Insight is a bit small for us and the dog, and seeing as borders are opening now it feels like a good time to focus on getting the BX in to shape for the 2,000 mile round trip!
Before cracking on with the welding I'll need to track down some parts to fix some of the mechanical problems, so hopefully with the help of the group I'll be able to source what I need to save this BX

Cheers,
Josh
