I have that top pic, someone sent me on facebook looked lovely, what are your plans? respray, subtle changes like smoothing out spare wiper holes. Lighter and more powerful while keeping outside quite subtle is my plan. What are your plans with yours?

Well I haven't used it since 2004, the paint is pretty rough now but she still damn solid for one of these, i got it running but it's being a right curse word at the moment, just stinks, fills the shop up with fumes, runs rough But my plans are hopefully use it for a bit and resto it later on, but pretty much the same as you, subtle changes and fresh paint, fresh interior etc.

Ha, ha, bet that hurt coughing for a carb and pressure regulator if they were new!
Liking this as my Turbo's so close to going back on the road after six years of sitting in the garage. Mine's not quite as original though as it's been welded from lips to bumholes!

Wow. I had a D-reg "All White" Turbo in the early 1990s. When it was good, it was very very good, when it was bad, it was horrid.
I think it ended up at the bottom of Fleetwood docks not long after I sold it.

Right little update On order: A new Carb Fuel pressure regulator Glass fuel filter Inline liquid filled pressure gauge A new ECU so i decided to investigate the damp carpet, Heater Matrix So I removed it, which was a bit of a mission! Gave it to a good Friend of mine Dave from Radicool, to refurbish, fit new seals and test for me Dave was recently on TV with Mike brewer for wheeler dealers. Anyway a pic of the grot!

Apologies if I've missed it but given the state of your heater matrix I think I'd be wanting the head off.
