    2.7 or 2.8 V6 PRV in that (depending on year, more than likely a 2.8 in a 1981). I saw that the other day, a nice project for someone who's serious.

    Not looking at it for myself.

    Just recalled seeing one a lot of years ago.

    But starting at £1.00..... Could be good for someone.

    That's optimistic by a factor of 10 or more.

    That's the value of a show car, the geezer's off the chain . . .

    Imagine how cool that would look flatted off to matte. Or even a matt black diy spray job.

    I like your thoughts there


    Though I think I'd get hated if I did that to one of them. I haven't seen one of them around for a LONG ass time!


    But matt black, with a 3" roof chop, 60mm lowering on it, steel wheels with Mooneye hubs and chrome bumpers, would look sweeeeeet!!!!
    matt black turbo brick rat - you know it makes sense

    It'll be one of those where you drive it off... and then proceed to crab down the street with half a turn of lock on to keep it going in a straight line.
