Just a shame the state of the bay lets it down. Its has been brush painted in the past so needs stripped back and done again...one day.

Your cam is still in the packaging, this was another one I had sitting in the pile of bits lined up for this :)

    I think the mk2 has been getting jealous of all the work and money being thrown at the GT and all I do with the mk2 is thrash the pants off it everywhere and use it as a van. So as I was driving home

Clearly not enough of a parts hoarder, missing the bracket for the throttle cable and the one for the lambda and starter plugs. I know I had some, but in all my boxes of parts I can't find either :(

Thanks :)

Old loom is still sitting where you see it in the picture :lol:

Oh well don't chuck it as it may come in useful :D

Well sadly this project has come to an end. Further inspection of the rusty bits and deciding that my time/money is better spent elsewhere I have decided to let go of this car.

 

A lot of the good bits have been taken off already and transferred onto the mk3 Van. The rest of the bits I will keep for my other projects or as spares and then the shell and whats left is going to Ross @citrus to help him along with his mk2 project.

 

I did have good intentions for this car to start with but sadly the rot is just too far gone for it to be worth my time and effort to fix, considering everything else I have on my plate too. I feel I have failed in a way but at least all the bits from it will be used to keep other projects going.

 

Here is one last picture while it still looks like a car..

Damn, I only just found this thread and was really enjoying it! Oh well, let me know if you are selling your clocks with the Rev counter.

Sorry they are going with the car and will be used by Ross on his project.

I have toyed with that idea but the arch on the drivers side is well past it.

Just reading through this

great read, looking to convert my coupe s to injection don’t suppose you have an engine lying around with loom ? Mines needs rings and high mileage so may as well swap the entire engine 

cheers
