Keep it original . If you decide to put your own spin on the car then when it comes to sell it you will have to hope that any potential buyer likes what you have done, many won't.

Simple answer is to go on your own, my girlfriend usually wants to see the rom coms or chick flicks and there's not a snowballs chance in hell that I'll be going to see that crap no matter how large the box of popcorn is.

Yes, no problem I have them

No, only the later BEHR units. They were fitted to later MK2 and all MK3 models. Your car will have the earlier Smiths heater. You can fit the BEHR unit into your car.

I've never known a heater motor to be stuck on, I tend to agree with the previous reply.Whenever I build a car now I always strip out the heater box and fit new matrix, resistor and motor. I have the parts in stock, if you don't fancy tackling the stripdown and replacing the parts just send me your ...

MK1 facelift flasher units were usually a black three pin relay. Earlier MK1 flasher units tended to be a metal cylindrical unit. Try looking to the left of the steering column as the flasher unit may be clipped to the side of the pedal box bracket.

I have the new fittings in stock.

I'm pretty sure I have the sill trims, possibly a boot carpet. I can have a look for the other bits as well.

I would start with a compression test before anything else.

Just go to any tool supplier and buy a set of parallel punches. They're not expensive and you'll get at least half a dozen different punches. I have done this job countless times and have not experienced the issues you have.

I will be attending this show and will have a selection of new and used parts.
I will be taking a selection of repair panels but WILL NOT be taking bumpers or wings unless they are specifically ordered as they take up too much space.
Please message me with any requirements.

I did one the other week, took around 3 hours, very straightforward. There is some trimming to do but nothing drastic and the end results are impressive.

I check them before the cars are stripped.

The CCI ones are brilliant - no more pissing around trying to fill cracked dashboards or leather covers, CCI ones every time.

Some Girling servos can be refurbished but I was told by another company that the ATE ones fitted to the 2.8i can't be done. I have some used ones taken from cars on the shelf.

You probably don't always need Specialists but there'll come a time when you won't have them anymore and unless you actually know what you require then the general factors will be no use at all.
Just a thought.

I don't think there's ever been a time for the rat look!

The tailgate bolts are M6, later ones were torx headed.

The lights issue may be a knackered indicator stalk , they're prone to breaking.

I'll send stuff anywhere in the world, I have quite a few NZ customers. I generally take the phone off the hook over lunch as I'm on my own, also, if I have a particular job on a car that requires concentration I also take the phone off the hook.
