i have owned the car for just over a year and can say im done and happy with it now few little bits like front foglamps etc but its done and im well chuffed, i bought the car off a chap that had it standing for over 5yearz only coverd 80k but was a mess cant belive i drove back from manchester it some how had 12month mot anyways back to the car its had new driver side wing front pannel new front bumper and few little weld ups i done the car has been done inside out but only done with black paintable stoneguard 3m stuff as i use it evry day and have been doing so for the past year iv uploaded a little collection of whats been done and its restore enjoy all comments welcome







paintwork was all pitting and flaking bodykit was hanging off in places bumper had cracks in it and was dreadfully painted rear lights were different shades drivers wing had huge holes in the bottom as it was not sealed before welded on before engine was a mess gearbox was crunchin whinning suspension was all knakerd bearings car neede some serious tlc lol







car then got fully taken back to original primer and started fresh with a new coat of grey primer over the car and all kit bumpers new arches inner outer both sides welded up and fully sealed door locks welded up original battery and fuse trays as were treated from new or sometime in its life which was a big bonus small plate welded to back pannel
