Another one of my imports

Poor thing arrived on a lowloader, sat on my drive for a few months and then left on transporter, Don't think I ever even drove it

Best of luck with the project

 

thanks very much. hoping to bring it back to its former glory. 300bhp-350bhp should do nicely

 

Best of luck with the project there some serious plans you have for it
looking forward to some regular updates.

 

thanks very much. progress will be slow want to take my time and do it right. i have no dead line so no point rushing.

 

Sounds like a good project. Cool garage. I see the priorites are in the right order, lift in before windows, doors etc

thanks very much. who needs windows, doors and heat when you have a lift. hoping to get the shed finished before i start work on the corrado.

 

Best of luck with the project, it will be some machine when it is finished. I love silver corrados

thanks very much. trying to make it as mint as possible. its the details that count e.g. i am plating all bolts washers and brackets in the original gold color. no part of my corrado will be left untouched. i hope bmw m3 csl grey will look good. haven't seen it done before. if it dosen't look good ill just re-spray it.

 

best of luck with it.i mite know someone who can give you a hand with the tricky stuff
