Going to strip it at some point, will kind of be a shame as it looks like the rear seats have never been used. Probably lower it on comp MO's or speedlines, cant decide yet. Keeping it pretty simple. No conversion yet, too young!

no need to do a conversion, throttle bodies are the way forward on these cars

Dont strip it

Thats too much of a minter to do that, if you are gunna do na engine conversion and strip it whats the point in finding a low miler? Youll change everything!

Nice example tho

thanks for all the comments. I'm see what you mean, the interior apart from the minimal wear on the bolster is absolutely mint. I want to enjoy the car as is for the time being anyway!

yeh i dunno why i said no to an engine conversion 'yet' because im not planning on doing one. I like the idea of keeping and tuning a 1600.
