Got the car in jan this year it was in rough shape. slight accident damage to the rear dinks all over the place and it had been keyed both sides. Cambelt as about to break to as it was cracking all over.

First job was to do the cambelt and waterpump. Not a bad job apart from the removal of the drivers side engine mount.

2nd job was to remove the accident damage at the rear. it had just pushed in the rear wing slightly so got that all pulled out and fitted new rear bumper and boot lid.

my paint guy took these pictures. I will add some finished pictures when ive got her back and given her a good clean.

further jobs.

change manifold (got upgraded one)
MOT and vic check
refurbish or change wheels.

I am going to need my GTV Cup painted, and my sprint blue 20vt. Can you get some finished photos to look at Neil?

Love every bit of this quality revamp... But would it be better in the 'Coupe Project' section? I think everyone else would get forwarded there normally..
