She starts on the button, she runs sweet as and drives, well as far as out of my drive and back thats all she's done for a while.
No brakes at the mo as I was half way through ripping out all the old system.
I have loads of fittings and new copper pipe that I was planning to run through the inside of the car and fit a bias adjuster next to the gear lever.
Obviously have the new AP brake kit for the front and have 205 rear calipers and was going to buy new 205 rear discs.
Once this is done she will start, run and stop (I use the handbrake at the mo)
Seats will be needed, again you may have seen I had the Sparco ones a while ago that I sold. For the rally rep she was going to be I decided that Recaro SPG seats would be needed but I've never bought them.
It comes will all sorts of little bits and bobs, I have a selection of bonnet pins, proper old skool ones for the boot along with spring hooks as per the TTE car, 3" 5 point Sabelt harness
Really, seats, brakes and an MOT and away you go then you finish off the bits as you go.

The brakes are the biggest job and I simply don't have time, got loads of stuff on the house to do and that takes priority at the mo... and I kinda need the cash after the wedding and honeymoon  :'(

Couple of years ago I'd have had those alloys off you but at the moment I'm currently struggling to not torch the 185!
