autonet7 Posted August 19, 2010 Report Posted August 19, 2010 Couldn't resist this. I had one back in 1990. This one has only 45k from new and amazingly solid. Original Ford radio which is virtually useless as LW/MW only but looks good. Original sills, wings etc. Had to fit new stem seals and decoked it at the same time. I've yet to find any evidence of welding, though I guess there must be some. I need a NSR door glass and ideally a new bonnet if anyone has either. The bonnet is not rotten but has a few dents from garage storage. Could beat them out I guess.
2litreScapri Posted August 19, 2010 Report Posted August 19, 2010 Nice find, very clean. What's the plans for it?
autonet7 Posted August 19, 2010 Author Report Posted August 19, 2010 Not sure yet. Seems a shame to mess with it being so original. When I get the new engine in the Mex I may take the Weber 40's and stick them on for a bit more grunt. Gonna stick new shocks on all round this weekend to stiffen the boat-like ride a bit. Other than that, not entirely sure what to do with it yet. It's georgeous to drive tho'
dave waudby Posted August 19, 2010 Report Posted August 19, 2010 very nice looks very tidy and original
