It's fine making these mongrels but you never know weather they are actually going to work or fit. It's not quite there. Engine lid doesn't shut as yet. Going to be tight!

One day this has to get fixed. To date has it's been a pain in the arse since rodents made a home in it. Thought I'd fixed most of it but still cant get this right. It fires on all 4, tested for air leaks but barely runs. Thought it may be the cam sensor. Replaced the pick up which they don't make easy to replace fixed with cold rivets to mount. Baffled why the cars still starts and rune without the cam sensor even connected.

She's nearly ready for the motor to be fitted. Had to strip out all the interior today to start making up the throttle and coke cables. Stripped out all the crappy plastic fuel lines and replaced with one piece metal throughout the car. A few electrics in the engine bay to sort then in it goes.

Anyone have any 16v turbo chips kicking about. Need to get an old coupe up and running.

Engines nearly done. Waiting for a few more parts and little tune up. When it's all set up it's going in.

Looking for inspiration. This was the last Coupe that left my old workshop. Since the move and build of my new unit I've not as yet got my teeth in to a Coupe. I still have the new ramps to source and fit but hopefully back up and running soon. Just back from a trip to Belfast where I met with a fellow Coupe owner Scott with a stunning Blue Plus. Although owning many Coupes I never actually drive them so been taken out in one over the weekend bought back how amazing these cars are. What a treat! The car was a real credit to Scott and nice to put a face to the name.

Had this little question come up this morning ref a 16v Turbo Plus. Many say they didn't make one but they did, I have two. It's basically a factory 16Vt with every additional option available at the time, no different from the 20vt Plus and its options in period The 16vt Plus came with. metallic paint, leather seats, air con and a sunroof. I do have one with the addition of the factory Zender kit. It my option in time this model will be the most sort after and collectable model, the earliest models always are.
