heres how i bought the car
the car ran fine but somtimes had a slight miss fire so the cts was replaced and it was all good for a while so i stripped out the rear seats door cards carpet ready for a roll cage to be welded in
few weeks of driving about i noticed oil in my coolent so off with the head wich will be sent to vsport for porting and polishing and the mod done to stop the head going porous. this is how far i am with the car
im going to tidy it all up while i can a sand down and some freash paint and also re rout the power stering pipes as they were rubbing on my radiator and have fucked it
next job is to move the battrey into the boot and replace all the engine sensors for new ones
