Project Pheonix

as Rouge is moving on, i couldnt let the chance of this pass me by.

so, here we have a Renault 19 16v phase 1, the best of course, date of first registration 09 11 1991 in what i believe to be 449 blue.

mileage just over 77000

and boy this may well be a challenge and a half! anyhow, getting rouge ready for sale is taking priority for now, so its under cover for a little while, and the plan is to take the engine out of my black one, project XIX and put into this, as the engine is completely dead, been told the head gasket has gone big time, so i doubt if i cba to sort that out if its that bad as i expect the head will be warped but i dare say i can salvage a lot of bits off it.

so anyway, a few pics.........





















will get this done properly to stop it spreading, but on the whole, impressed







cant wait to get it washed and detailed





impressed with all the straight panels, etc

engine, well itsbeen standing for about a year, so i wasnt expecting it to be really clean, still its a good excuse to use some engine cleaning kit i spose!







new alternator




no abs?


starter motor heat shield! now theres a rarity, lol
