this two are the only two in my country. Mk1 are also mega rare, less than 10 road legal.

Silver one is so rusty and it was smashed on the front at some point of his life, so i decided to swap almost everything on the green one. And the gearbox on the silver one is automatic so i swapped complete engine with trans on the green one.

Plans for this year… to make it runs again and to finish bodywork for painting

I was drivig many applauses for more than 10 years and i cant wait to drive this one again.

this is my old car (you can see the white doors on the green one)

Here is some progress from yesterday. After swapping the engine and transmission from the silver one and messing with immo, car finally runs! Now Im focused on the bodywork because “winter is coming” Unlucky i have time only by weekends so progress is slow but hey… i’m optimist! Plan from now is to paint the car before 2023.

these are TSW 18 4x100 7j et35 and im searching for 205 35 R18 tyres
also, i have one retro 80s set of Fondmetal Canonica 14" 4x100 so they also needs refurbishing.
Im thinking about 18 for summer, and these 14 for the winter.
