SteveB's 10/1987 Mr2 AW11. Aus delivered. Melb

This car had come close to being junked for parts when I found it in a field a year and a half ago. I started with a dead fuel pump and worked my way through injectors, body repairs, paint, discs and suspension bushes. Yesterday it finally got its RWC and its a road car again.
 
Its not the end of the fixing, but it is the start of the driving.

    Its still got a long list of stuff to change or fix. As I do my own work, it's going to be slow. I have Eibach springs, period momo wheel, a shifter bush and a few more suspension bush's left to install. I need to refit the side skirts, front air dam and replace the drivers window gear. The rear mud flaps will probably stay deleted. The rear number plate needs an adapter to center it between the lights and mask the cutouts. It has a pretty fresh & healthy small port, so Im happy just catching up with the maintenance to keep it that way.
     
    Im only starting to learn how it wants to be driven, so for now more power isn't a big priority. On the social side I'd like to join the Vic Mr2 club. And when it's sorted, an Adrenalin Phillip island day (or similar) would be in order.
