 Description:

My dad bought this car in 1982 and I had it as my first car in 2006. I had three years great driving and was hoping to get it back to its former glory but never quite got round to it. Its been sorn since 2009 and its finally time to let it go.

The car itself is reasonably solid, the engine started first time when I tried it for the first time in over a year last week. It could do with new front and rear lower panels as these have deteriorated. It also needs some 'touch ups' to the rear arches and paint work. This is a good, original example and has great potential! I just wish I had the time to restore it as its really fun to drive.

Here is a list of work i've had carried out since I started driving it:

• Front and Rear Suspension Mount Welding
• New Rear Suspension
• Two New Front Wings
• New Fuel Pump
• New Fuel Pump Wire Hoses
• New Copper Piping from Fuel Pump to Engine
• New Water Pump
• Reconditioned Engine Head
• New Exhaust

I also have a whole 2nd engine which I've been using to maintain the original and a new radiator which hasn't been fitted yet.
