Actual barn (driveway) find, has been sat for a couple of years at least. But its fairly straight, quite rust free, the engine is sweet. It was retired due to the gearbox losing reverse gear.

Some nice bits like funky embroidered leather seats, an actual vacuum gauge, HKS zorst and J spec Bilstein suspension.

 

Needs some bits like a full front brake set up, an alternator, maybe some headlights if I cant recover them

 

Plans :- Swap the gearbox (in progress)

Tidy up

MOT

About time buddy:) welcome to the club lol.

 

Its a start I suppose, been so put off with the prices now its hard to find a base car at decent money! But thanks :D

 

 

Really like the look of that. Always liked the top secret bumper

 

Im not a fan of the bumper but I really like the Failside skirts! Want to revert to stock but afraid of what lurks under the skirts :blink:

About time

 

With your assistance of course :)

 

If it were mine I'd keep it as it is but swap the headlights for new ones. They look quite yellow in the photo.

 

They're pretty badly crazed to be honest, Im hoping they'll clean up a bit with some G3 but ultimately will need replacing

 

Nice find, how much did you get it for?

 

A gent never reveals his details lol, but it wasn't anywhere near market value

  • 2 weeks later...

And there we go, 2 weeks after getting it delivered, minimal work to sort the hand brake and unsieze the front calipers MOT passed with no advisories :)

 

Lots left to do like get rid of the kit and small cosmetic stuff but on the whole its a solid, road legal base to build on
