As the current Mrs_jas_racing would testify I'm worth the wait I don't think I posted these photos on the project thread but this is where the restored 'shell spent 10 years of its life up until I bought it last year: Just goes to show that you never know what could be hiding behind the many closed garage doors we all pass every day! She's GONE!

I had a Lotus Carlton replica (3000gsi) back then and we had great fun terrorizing the streets of Brum. Keep up the good work. Last edited by Dazvr6; 25/03/2014 13:38.

It seems unusually narrow for the width of the cogged pulleys and idler/tensioner... I've never done one of these, so I can't be considered an expert, it just stuck out looking at it. Don't get no respect! Coupe Fiat 1994-2000 - an owner's guide <-- clicky!

baz4205 Unregistered B	I have been watching your process on the uno that car is stunning.I was a bit of a uno turbo nut back in the day I have had a white mk1 my second ever car,a green mk1 a grey ph2 and a very clean white mk2.These unos are the reason I still drive a coupe the coupe reminds me of the unos and my youth.Just out of interest how does the uno compare to a coupe I cant remember the last time I was in a uno turbo
