Default XR3 resto project

Finished my cossy rebuild so bought myself another little project to keep me busy over the summer.

Its an XR3........ sort of
Its an 1983 XR3 with rs turbo kit, trim, pop out back windows etc etc but she was in a bit of a state

A few more of the night i took delivery

Oh my god will it ever go back together??????





Thought i would start on the engine bay and just get her tidyed up. Im undecided what to do with her yet, keep the 1.6 or fit a turbo lump or just go mad and fit 2.1 with cossy management

Engine out in 52 mins


Well from this
