131 coming together

Post by parrish »

I started this project about 9 months ago.
I recently recieved the car back from the body shop and have spent the last week trimming and wiring.
Im waiting for wheels and then she will be off for an MOT.
Although a runner the engine requires a lot of work, that is the next part of the project.
New front and back panels, new front wings and doors have been fitted.
Steve.

Now MOT'd and fitted with 15 x 9 wheels, ill post the updated pictures some time in December next time i get a chance to take photos.
Only the engine to sort now!
Sounded like a bag of nails last time i heard it running, its currently in the garage getting the big valve that was removed for welding re-fitted.

As promised, here she is as arrived in Spain last month.
Looks a lot better with those wheels on does'nt she?
I need to lower the rear though.
I have other issues with the mechanics so now need to concentrate on getting those sorted, gearbox sounds like the input shaft bearing has gone and the cylinder head could do with some shimms, i have a pair of 45's to fit and as the cylinder head had been worked, ie large valves and flowed im hoping to get some more ooommph out of her as she seems a little flat at the moment.
