And the 850r rebuild begins with help from a member on the forum a great chap who sold me his scrap 850 as a source of spares to put the R right first on the list to put right the bent rear arms and refurb the wheels and new tyres

Lots really, the rear main is leaking so I'm planning a manual conversion at the same time, bent rear arms, some rust issues around the car, refurb wheels, new tyres, 302 brake upgrade, remap, the dashboard is broken where the glovebox mounts but I keep getting a smell of antifreeze so I'm guessing the matrix is on its way out aswell there is probably more to add to the list but that's a start :B_thumb:
