Hopefully some pics of the car before.






Not sure how to get the pics to appear without having to click on link?
I used the IMG selection?

Peter.

Some pictures at last of the coupe!

Started as a basic strip down to do the cambelt and replace the brake pipes but has got a bit more involved lol.












Its looking quite sorry for itself right now (must admit the thought "it'll never work again" has crossed my mind lol but sure it will be worth it in the end!

Some more pictures of the restoration, have jumped forward a bit as usually forgot the camera as am doing the car at my in-laws house.

Having a nightmare with uploading pics from photobucket, probably my old computer but its beyond a joke!
adding imgpop to start and /imgpop at end, sure was Direct link (2nd one down)?!

Note to self (and anyone else that needs reminder) add square brackets round imgpop and /imgpop to work!

Try adding pics again?

Cleaned up bay prior to fitting engine.

Can't seam to work out how to put images up as before, now using an I pad, anyone know what to do to get imgpop pics onto forum?

Have today fired up the new engine
Measured compressions and all 5 showed 160psi +/- a couple of psi's. When fired up she initially was going between 2-3k rpm which thought odd, but settled down to normal 1k ish after a couple of mins and sounds sweet

Some more pics of engine bay, front suspension, front crossmember, rack etc.

Only front bumper and undertray to re-fit.
