Slow Progress MK1

The only bits I've managed so far are to change the steering wheel, the tow-strap (it was a gift from the other half) and to spray the wheels black, as well as T-cut, polish and wax the bodywork.

Currently, the car is sat on axle stands after discovering a seized caliper piston in my rear brake. I have a replacement ready to go in tomorrow, as well as a set of yellow fog lights to fit. After sorting the problems, I can hopefully get round to buying the adjustable coilovers and wide-wheels I want!

Very nice. Looks like a well looked after example.

Any more plans for it?

Holy crap! An actual reply and I missed it!!

I do have some plans, but I'm currently weighing up whether I want to spend the money on this car, or on buying an FD RX7...the plans are to sort out the bits of bodywork that I'm not happy with (which is a quick job to be honest), have the paint panda-specced (like the old AE86s, plus rivet-on arches), and then to lower it on adjustable coil-overs, fit some ridiculously wide/low-offset Compomotive MLs, and to have an exhaust made up for it, as well as fit the R1 carbs I have laying around. We'll see what happens, but at the moment I'm leaning heavily toward the RX7 idea while I can still afford it!

Car looks lovely.

We had an idea to AE86 style paintwork when I had a white SC, think it could look pretty cool if you get it right.

Though I am liking the white car/black wheels combo.
