I do still have this specimen. Its completely stripped out and Chris has been a legend and has been battling through rust repairs.
Hes getting on top of them then it will be panel and paint. New turbo, gearbox rebuilt, and a new radiator.
This is the scene most tuesday evenings.
Cheers Chris!

Finally started doing some things on this again. Got some s13 camber plates and drilled new holes to make them work.
Got a friend to make up some RCA's as I couldn't find any for my bluebird struts.
Sorry looking thing.

camber and caster adjustment - all in one - good work - much more rust to come out?

Na just a few wee bits to tidy up. Trying to sort all the suspension out 1st so I can get some wide wheels to fit perfectly, then paint it once I know it wont rub at a filthy ride height.

I'm so glad to see this exquisite piece of car art receiving some attention again.
Will you be getting the englishman to apply a fresh coat of makeup?
