Find a gearbox and fit it. Sort the rust and cracks and paint it matt purple with an orange roof and have a mix and match pair!!

like you thinking......... just a bit impracticle running 2 cars.. hmmmmmm

oh and a cheap gearbox will be appreciated if anyone has 1!!!!!!! :biggrin:

fit gbox and sell

Yeah i realise that it was more of a stupid suggestion. Would look cool though :-)

My thinking is take all the bits from the 16V you want. Break the rest to help you fund a gearbox and carbs etc and then build the engine and wang it in the peachy one :-)
