Wow sensible you to keep it, at least you know its history, love the decked out back, so 80's....good luck with your resto...is the colour mandarin red?

Just cant seem to part with it Yeh I am tossing up if I keep the back or go more of a modern slick look. If I change it I could then do a different color for the body.
THe color I have no idea it was a respray that was done way back before I purchased it.
The Resto will have to be done on the cheap to begin with have a young family(thats why I am up so early) and mortgage
First thing will be to just get it roadworthy to go over the pits for registration.
- Fix up rust - fix oil leak in trans - clean up engine bay (eek)

Cheers H
