No it looks much more rusty in real time :)
Tony, as for the engine and Box, if they would be of use to you then make an offer, everyhting has a price :) got a 1300 engine spare too.
I've decided to make a quick dyane actually, as and when i can think the projects down a bit i'll make a start.
Who's fitted a turbo and what do i need? _________________ Too Much, is never enough. |

Stefan on this board fitted a turbo.
But if you start off with a 1300 and AMI Super 4 spd you'll have something quite quick to start with...
Your chassis looks rusty on the 2 front crossmembers. it should be no problem at all to replace these with box section tube. _________________ "That bumper fits there like sunglasses on pig" O.E.

I think he can't go lower because of the angle of the road to his garage _________________ "That bumper fits there like sunglasses on pig" O.E.
