I am advertising it as in need of full restoration. It is a 30 year old car and has not been the road for over 15 years so you will need a trailer to take it away.
It is impossible for me to list everything needed as it is a project and needs some time and money spent on it, so please view and judge it for yourself.
Bodywork is pretty standard for a Gt Turbo project. It needs new sills although the rest of the floor seems good. There is a bit of rust under the passenger rear window and the front window wiper mount is rusted through, I bought a replacement scuttle for it (included) and the chap I bought it off said it was actually quite good compared to most 5’s that need a restoration but I am not Gt Turbo expert so it is what it is. I replaced the drivers side wing and have a replacement door for it (although it is roll pin type not bolt on type, there is a mod you can do though) The bonnet is also quite rusty.
I do have three centre caps for the original wheels
The interior is complete apart from the parcel shelf. Front seats need foam and fabric but the rear seats are ok
The engine is missing the turbo so I have obviously never had it running. There is a box in the boot of various bits, including the intercooler and the heat shield.”
