I'm having problems uploading my pics. I've emailed them to Matt, he's going to put them in his photo bucket account and upload them here. Enjoy.

Just waiting for Gt Matt to get pics up. I'm guessing he was out on the beers last night.
Right guys here goes a credit to Pete getting this car ,I think the club needs a project like this , all pics from Pete I am just uploading them enjoy , can't wait to see it in person
We need a like button.
Good luck with the build
Now this is going to be awesome project, keep the pics flowing and the updates coming
Nice!!
Is it complete?
Nice and solid
Spill then ...where did that surface from
It's totally solid, zero rust. Yes it is complete. All the parts are included in the sale. It was stripped for a bare shell respray 9 years ago by the previous owner at a secret location in manchster.
You have done well getting that. What are your plans for it then?
First post!
Has this had a right hand drive conversion
Yes by radbourne racing. I'm putting it back to left hand drive tho, already got steering column and steering rack.

Best thing to do will put ££££ on its value are you keeping it standard
Convert it back to left had drive, bare shell respray, Nickle plate all metal brackets, replace any perished rubbers, new dash wiring loom, build back up, get it running and checked over by a specialist.Originally Posted by chris
You forgot something..... Go out and enjoy driving it!
Keep it come my house take us for a spin my dream car
Nice one Pete, it couldn't be in better hands. .
Yeh can't wait to drive it.You forgot something..... Go out and enjoy driving it!
I think I might take it to a track day and learn to drive a left hand rwd car properly. Then on to some shows and meets. A drive to France would be cool.
Thanks for all the interest and comments guys. I'll keep u all updated.
WOW....
Nice one Pete... Ill have come take a look sometime...
Nice project for the winter months
Wow! that will be awesome when its finished, great project to have in the club, will keep an eye out for the project/resto thread

Just picked my jaw up from the floor.. looks solid! I want one too!! :O
You must be rediculously excited.... bet youve got a little makeshift bedroom in that garage now.

when you need some info, i'll send it over to you
btw - r5turbo2 -Keir - we met once, when i had my red t2 - nice to see you still have your black one.
Wow amazing car. my dream car.
8220 or 8221??
shame the roof trims have been painted...... be careful stripping them as they are rubberish and... well..... hard to do get.....
looking good! get it back to LHD and then open the door on gear changes!!!
its not c515eme is it???? that had seats in that colour......
Herefordshire? Is that John price rallying??avoid the Pricey one in Herefordshire.....
when you need some info, i'll send it over to you

Ps thanks sparkie for the info on the t2 before I took the next step. I've still got a copy of your PFC feature that I keep for reference.
Btw r5turbo2 welcome to the club (1st post in 18 months lol), get stuck in and get some pics of your car up
Moggy, it's an 8220 on a y registration. It comes with an unpainted pair of roof trims. There's a reciept for £1,200 for a cream leather seat retrim, I'd love a pair of t1 seats tho if u know of any going spare?
(Open door changing gear??) does the leaver hit your knee on lhd form?
Awesome, you lucky lad!
t1 seats area s rare as.....
as for the opening the door..- Mogster is joking. - you will be still trying to move your left arm when changing gear. - you'll also have to master the art of looking down the inside of the car infront, when trying to overtake.
i also advise going to France in it. - it's almost like the second coming. People honking, thumbs up, pointing etc etc.
We need to find one of these marrow!Awesome, you lucky lad!
After you have helped with my projects of course!

and its even more fun doing the Paris ring road in it..... and setting fire to the road through the tunnels!!!!
oh ok.... that was EFI going nuts!!! but yep..... take it home.... they love it (thats the car and the frogs)
yes it was at WSR
pete- i have an unpainted boot spolier......
Rumor has it is a poor repair and a leg is significantly shorter than one other.
Just a rumor mind
Hmm I'm not sure if I've got an unpainted boot spoiler the one on the tailgate ATM is painted, deffo got the side rail trims unpainted tho. I'll check with the previous owner....cheersyes it was at WSR
pete- i have an unpainted boot spolier......
Leg shorter than the other?? What car?
yeah do tell, i assume it you mean my old one? - rear chassis leg had see abit of action previous to me owning it. - i had to use OE style spacers to get the car driving straight.
something you might wanna check Pete. - remove the lower rear wishbone and check the chassis rail under where the wishbone bolts to it. - it shouldn't have any ripples.... most have been crashed.
