If it is moderately solid you will have found something that with a bit of TLC and a lot of cleaning will be fun! what is on the odometer?

Best of luck with your new motor. You dont see many of these in the republic of Ireland at car shows or on the road.
I seen a black 92 reg. granada, parked up on the main street in Mitchelstown, Co. Cork and it had the bonnet up, not good.
