On the boat arriving for Christmas
Hi

Bought a new project couple of months back now, its going to require some work but i'm hoping to bring another abandon AE86 back to life.

Currently somewhere in the Atlantic should be here Christmas week.
I'll start a project page and start upload pictures as it unfolds.

Not much in the way of interior or heating no doubt

Just building up the 4age 20v Blacktop to sort that issue of propulsion.

yeah tell me about it - this is going to be some work - i'm planning to have it cleaned up and running by the summer, then respray it. I've seen a few guys in the US turning these into fully electric but i don't think there's much of a market for this yet. Anyway i fancy a few trips to Ireland collecting parts will be on the cards Wink

Car has loads of character. I'd leave the body like it is but with clean engine bay and built engine.

Looking forward to future updates.
