Re: I would just like to wish the seller of this.....

At that price Pete if anybody is stupid enough to buy it then good luck to them, as has already been said, a can of worms.It's not worth anything near that figure to me.

Re: just been volvod"

If the sills are rippled then I would seriously think twice about having it repaired.The first thing to do would be to get it inspected thouroughly as I suspect its too far gone. £1800 is nowhere near enough to do anything like a proper job on the car. If that's all the budget that's available then ...

Re: decambered springs

Put a set of single leafs on and before you do the final tightening up, which should be done with the weight of the car on the floor, have someone sit in the boot or put a heavy weight in there.
That will slightly lower the rear end without pissing around with lowering blocks.

Re: engine paint

Sounds to me like it's bloomed. Chances are the atmosphere around where you were painting was damp.
It doesn't really matter if you warmed the paint while drying, the surrounding area is still damp.

Re: Coming in tomorrow. Very early MK3 2.0.

I'm breaking a 2.0 Ghia MK3 at the moment and it has a vinyl roof. The gutter trims are gone but I still have the edging strip on the tailgate, just under the base of the window. Also, the two smaller trims that go from the back edge around to the tailgate opening are still on the car. I don't think...

Re: MKIII 1986 2.0 Auto Laser for sale

Non runner, no MOT, no tax, will probably want a large amount of money spent on it to recommission it.Not a rare car, low mileage doesn't really make it worth a fortune.
