Default Mercury Grey 2wd... Not sure where to start!

Had this for for a while now but not touched it since last year.

Its a rolling shell, has interior & all the body panels but missing engine box etc.

I really wanted a doner car to build this back up with so managed to buy a rusty 4x4 from a friend, although mines a 2wd I knew I could use the 200 block & L8 ecu & then just source a gearbox etc.

So the plan is..

Tidy up around the body, needs an arch on the drivers side rear but others body is pretty rust free. Will require the spoiler & a few other bits painting but that's all I'll be doing for now as I want to drive this not look at it!!

Here's a few pictures of how it's sat now

Looking very sorry at the minute but hopefully get the arch welded in next week & begin stripping it down for abit of paint & polish.

I'll add more pictures as & when, not going to be a full resto thread or anywhere near but hopefully you can enjoy me put one of the rarer colour cars back on the road
