HI Mike
Hope it goes well tommorow...Im sure it is a lovely car.
My 2p based on ownership of old cars.... Origional things like water pumps, alternators and mainifold gaskets do not hold up well after 27+ years ...just bear that in mind if your looking for a 'driver'
As Nick has said let your head rule your wallet .
All the best
Mike

Thanks. As it is now it deffinatly wouldnt be a daily driver, it would just be a weekends during the summer thing to shows and such like. Not fussed about having to change the odd thing, at the end of the day most important is the chassis etc as for me it would be harder to repair.
But as you say i haveto keep it in mind and will have a good look at it tommorow and see how it is and take it from there.

Well done. I remember how exiting it was when I got mine, I bet you can't wait to get it home now.
I'll probably feel the same when I get mine back together :wink:
