thanks for your comments : )
the van i am going to give a good tidy, probably replace bushes, shocks etc and tidy up the paint, i have some replacement bumpers to go on, a five speed box etc... long term I'm thinking that as i have a spare bluebird turbo engine i may drop in there when i have the time, although a cherry turbo engine bolts straight in... so if i come across one of those i'll pop that in there instead : )

nice car there, is this the one that was in readers rides of ppc magazine, i'm an owner of the brother of your motor I have an 88 silvia s12 with the same 1.8 turbo parts can be hard to come by, i'm currently doing the same mods as u have on yours to mine, good cars I think! zx oc I think I need to get into! I need sills thats it! the rest of my car is rust free! I do like the bluebird, I was looking for one but they are rare! took me a while to find mine! my old executive bluebird turbo had rusted away and it took me ages to find a new one with a clean shell. Eventually, i picked up this one with knackered brakes and a smokey turbo for £300... there are more pics here (you'll need to copy and past the link), including a lot of the work i've done... a big thanks to the zxoc for all the help : ) www.flickr.com/photos/12042907@N06/sets/72157607453778250/ |

I love that Bluebird. There's something about a tidy, well-modified example of the '80s minicab special which is just a little bit naughty.  |
