Hi there

Found myself a new project over the weekend.

Looks to be OK. Very minimal rust, some new panels required. Interior is all there with a few NOS parts. Comes with 5 months rego. Price was too good to refuse. I am thinking of a full resto, but it did srart life as a 4 (now registered and certiifed as an 8)

Plans thus far
- Full bare metal respray
- Mild engine work, nothing too serious
- Interior - back to original
- Possible front/rear spolier but no flares


Any thoughts, comments, suggestions appreciated.

Cheers

Lovely! I'd lower it on some widened 14" stockers with chromed hubcaps, give it a nice metallic paintjob in the same or similar colour, and a full black interior, and keep the 253, but give it a freshen up if it needs it, and maybe trim the boot and tidy up the engine bay... just my opinion, but that would look hot!

I personally would pass on the kit, maybe a front spoiler if it tickles your fancy, but it doesn't need one, just my taste though.
