ive owned it for 18 years, sold my daily driver to pay for the resto and although not finished , its out and about. took nearly 3 years to strip the car back and rebuild it all, old banger was rotten under the panels but sailed through the mot on its maiden run out. ive had guidence with the work from some good friends but all the work was done outside the house in the garden. like it or hate it, if you drive past it youll look at it
ive managed to get a turbo for the 6 pot at home and am building the rest of the system up to install it.turbo technics lightened me of a few quid to rebuild the internals but its all balanced etc now.....apparently.
if its good ill be happy, if not then ive got a 3.9 rover v8 on the engine stand at work waitng in reserve ........
sorry for any repeated pics..

we cut the edge off with a mega thin disc and welded a new lip on the reverse side and then dressed it..





with a little patience most things are achieveable
