Im tackiling this atm, think ill just cut it, me and dash boards dont get along   
 
Theres not all that much of a difference between the 1.4/1.6 tbh, id say just get the 1.4, cheaper to insure, it would be 16v within a few months anyway   
 
Better gearbox too

Well 
When i get it it will most probably be a 1.4 so il gut it of most of the interior for starters 
SS exhaust but wont buy a manifold because it WILL be going 16v 
Poly Carbs 
Buckets 
Harnesses 
Morettes maybe 
Raise Bonnet 
Holesaw Bumper 
Rallye Steelies i think   
thats about it but it will be a slow progress tbf

Keep taking that thing apart, I suppose it means there is slightly less Frenchness on the roads.
