Hello!

I'm new to the forum and thought it was time I said hello and shared my winter project.

I moved from this

to this

in fairly short succession.

I enjoy a bit of DIY spannering and am reasonably competent with a torque wrench, ergo I usually take on something needing a bit of work. This car has 103k miles on the clock, had an extremely stiff gear-change and tired suspension along with a leaking IMS. On the plus side it's completely straight body wise, has a full history and has just had the AOS, RMS and clutch replaced within the last 400 miles and just prior to my purchase.

My plans are to strip and rebuild all of the suspension and brakes, do a pelican IMS replacement, upgrade the interior to include a 996 dash,OBC and cruise retrofit along with a Pioneer appradio2 install.

Progress so far!

Crusty brakelines at the back!
