what bodystyling is available for the gordini.?
id love to ultimately own a turbo2 but ive not got the money for that kind of loopyness.
so was wondering, are replacement turbo1/2 bodypanels available? you can see what im getting at.
if the parts are available i just hope it works out cheaper than actually buying a t2.:rolleyes:

you would be surprised, you can get a t2 for less than you might imagine.

however.... check pages 1 & 2 out ;)

OHH SH1TTTTTTT:cool2: now knowing all them parts are available has totally scrambled my head.
well i suppose its a case of sourcing a clean gordini, and maybe slapping a tasty engine in the rear.
a nice future project i think.

im thinking thats an error on the left door skin pricing :scared:

to scramble your head further raj a gordini sounds like an expensive shell to cut up to build a car from. Haz has a totally rot free really tidy TL for sale very cheap, even has 11 months MOT ;) By cheap I mean 300 notes ish.

Things to consider though are that the R5's rear wheels are offset from one side to the other and will sit a bit funny in turbo-2 arches, but, not an issue if your building some new running gear and an engine into it.

Front nose is also longer on the T2, you'd need headlamp extensions and a T2 bonnet aswell as the front wings, etc.

BTW, sparkie, I think the OD of the gordini cam bearing will fit into the GTT block OK, Andy could verify.
