The car has lived its life as a rally car / race car / track car its not a pristine road car, it is very custom.
I'd consider PX on MSUK current passport rally cars, Citroen C2R2, MK2 escort, or similar.
Work to finish.
As a track / fun road car. The brakes etc work in so far as ive driven up and down the driveway and they stopped the car. Balance bar needs setup. I was intending to replace all the disc mounting bolts. The clutch could do with the master cylinder swapping to a different size for a better clutch feel, and a pedal stop fitting. Suspension needs set up, and front anti roll bar needs fitting. Bumpers need mounting properly, as do the indicators and side lights. Engine needs a proper run. It may need replacement O2 sensors as its running very rich. There's some sensor wiring to connect up, and the dashboard needs setup to the sensors. Notably speedo connections and water temp need sorted.
There may be other bits, but I've only driven it about 20m on the drive. Its not had a shakedown.
