Its a 1.6 as well so everything is a straight swap. No chopping looms like you were asking in another thread, propshaft etc all the same from Trixta's car.

There was 100 or 200 made with the red interior so someone on club roadster was telling me!

Do you mind me asking why your reshelling it? Road car just?

Good setup if I ever get it done :( ! Anything major to look out for or just the usual crack

Dave

just check the diff, locks from 2nd on. Then tne usual.
They are very common for rusting on the sills towards the rear wheels at the drains.
Check if the front wings have ever been taken off, and if theh were they need some sort of sealer behind them at the bottom as if not they can rot with water catchin in them!

Thats all that i can think of!
