Welcome

looks savable, need air in the tyres though ref the colour it looks Midnight Blue to me not black from those piccies anyway

what are the inner wings like ? engine bay piccies needed, the seats look like they are in decent nik apart from really dirty, no speakers in the door cards looks like you have the makings of a decent car

wings dont look bad either, have you got the nose cone for it ?

Cheers
Brian

Hi Lads,
Thanks for the welcome,

Brian - to answer your questions, the car is black think its just the pictures, also on the logbook, engine bay pics to come, yes the nose cone is there as well just on the shelf with the console etc. the engine has no head the guy said it was no good, but the original block is there, spare engine with the car for the head, think its out of a sierra?

Dave - Thanks for your comments.

Ian - Plans not sure, i have bought the car, but it is still at the guys lock up, for now as i have no time or space to work on it at the mo. When i do get time thinking of stripping out the car, most is out anyway, clean the crap off, get a clearer picture LOL, then take the remainder of the engine out, and try to do a bit of a resto into a driveable condition.

What do you guys think i should do with it, any ideas,thoughts, comments, advice (I'll need all the help i can get with this) and all will be appreciated, i will keep posting on this link and updating pics of progress to keep things interesting.

Is this the right thing to do?

Thanks again,

Daz
