This is a hounding thread to get Kev to let me start on this coupe turbo



Make no bodes about it, it needs a lot of work and more importantly a new heart.



But its running Avo coil overs, piper exhaust and seems to be polybushed.
But the painter of this car was a muppet

Get your wallet out Kev. More hounding

A fully restored 220 Coupe Turbo.

Come on Kev, join the Elite.

i can't count more than the fingers on my right hand how many green coupe turbo originals there are.

Still a £2k project including purchase of the car.

Well the decision has been made.





So to begin with:

New callipers front and rear
New discs front and rear
New ferodo pads front and rear
Front control arms
And track rods

Should give me something to do on this nice sunny day. Pics will follow

And a wise decision. Most of us have something to do on this sunny day - work

Not all of us! I'm just going to vote…….

Choose wisely.

Well i'm not saying that was fun (because it wasn't).

5hrs later and all the braking components are now off the car and i need a new set of nut extractors

Few nice surprises though, like:
Avo coil overs
Goodridge Braided brake pipes
and poly bushes everywhere

So thats a few jobs that won't need tackling.

Previous drilled, groved and rusted 282 front brakes, yes you are correct, there is no brake pads or securing screws for the discs

Yey, we achieved something - well, okay - it was just moral support when needed. Got to be worth doing this one, it actually looks very tidy from what I've seen of it.

I dread the day when I have to do what you're doing in the pictures. I may just bung you some money and take a chill pill...
