nice big old beast. just find a way to tucj the exhaust up closer to the bottom of the car at the back, and lower the car jsut a bit to close the gap in the arches and it'll be spot on as far as i'm concerned. that's about all i'd change about it.

Nice car, loads of potential. Not too keen on the wheels though |

The 3.0 8v lump having covered a mere 55k  8 valve? did you take a few out just for curse word and giggles? ;D 12valver int it? Very very nice motor all the same , I looked at one the same colour a year or so ago but couldnt afford the repairs it needed  |

Hell that's a tidy old Senator, is the paintwork original?
Only 55k on a CIH is barely run in, as long as it's had regular oil changes.
It'd be nice if the engine bay were given a good clean up too. Let's see some pics of the blue velour tastic interior then, very comfy cars.

nice. Ive had a hankering for one of these (but pre-facelift) for a while. Just no space! Shame on me! Yours is looking good , just needs a smidge out the front suspension |

Certainly did mean 12v not 8!!! And I believe the paintwork is indeed original

Look at all that lovely velour, mmmmm a lovely place to be. Is that an unused spare? This really has the potential to be a real minter. Niiiiiice!  |
