Hello from the South
The plan is to tidy her up and put all the trim etc back together (currenty in the boot) Then do an engine conversion of some desciption. Now this is going to be huge challenge as my mechanical skills are limited, but as they say you live and learn. Any tips on the most cost effective conversion etc hugely welcomed.

It was modified for the track it was running twin webbers, some sort of race cam, spax suspension, Jan Speed exhaust.
It's basically a solid shell, need a bit of minor bodywork, ding in wing should dolly out, and respray in time. I will post some pics when I get it trailered back. 95% of the trim is their comes on P slots, one centre cap missing.
Any tips on the most cost effectice engine converstion? thinking 2l 9a or 1.8 16v lump out a Mk II.
