Default Renault 5 Turbo Project

When I purchased this car, it wasn't running, I changed the plugs & some TLC, it started but ran rough.
I found the turbo was knackered, I got it reconditioned with a 360 bearing, now purrs like a kitten!
After that the ignition barrel wouldn't turn, so I replaced it with new.

Good points!
New front discs & pads
Lowered (very low)
New front bottom ball joints
Stainless steel exhaust system
Baileys dump valve
Mixture gauge (not wired in)
Boost gauge (not wired in)
Bucket seats (no sub frames)
Good tyres all round
Body seems good, no rust
Spoiler also included see the pic
Front fog lights

Bad points...
Paint job not so good
Got rear windows need fitting
No headlining
No rear seats
No tax / MOT
Front doors have dropped (hinge pins worn)
Front bumper brackets broke

When you turn ignition on, no lights come on, just oil pressure goes up (the speedo & rev counter work) & temperature gauge goes up when warm

Feel free to message or contact me on mobile (Text preferable during working hours especially)
