He'd had a lot of engine work done at Hurleys including new apex seals and a huge Greddy intercooler and the car had a lot of uprated parts on it.
got it into the garage...
put a battery on it and got the roof to fold down out of the way...
The interior is in great condition right down to the factory overmats.
Next job was to get it up on the ramp. These convertible FC's can rust like crazy if the roof leaks and this one had big holes in each side of the roof. The last one of these TII's I took apart looked like it had been dragged out of the sea it had so much rust in the floors.
This car though is actually very solid with only a bit of welding needed to the rear of each sill at the base of the B posts.
The floors are ok. The front wings have gone on their lower edges but are easy bolt off / bolt on replacements so probably not even worth trying to repair these. The inner wings are ok.
This car has got a ton of history with it..... every mot from new, loads of old tax discs, all the handbooks with FSH and loads of receipts....
All this maintenance definitely helped when taking parts off the car.... nearly all the bolts had copper-slip on them which really helped get them undone.
