[web:12a81d0306]http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/renault-5-turbo-shell_W0QQitemZ4614281897QQcategoryZ9861QQssPageNameZWDVWQQrdZ1QQcmdZViewItem[/web:12a81d0306]
Right I been looking at this over the last few days and staring at the spares I got (enough to drop the valver lump in) all im missing is all the looms I would of needed off the car I scrapped, I think it would be a worth while project and a good starting point for a hands on total restoration project (with some blood sweat and tears Inc of course)
Is it really as easy as the KB artical describes? Has there been many other have been done? And im taking it that the F7R will go in, in the future maybe and could also be turbo charged? As there was a 172 turbo 5 on ebay a month or so ago
I can lay my hands on most the GTT parts this car doesnt have so that is'nt much of a probem
what do you think? |
