            yup! been eyeing this car off for at least 4 years! trying to convince the owner to sell it for soooo long and poor preeny was in the middle of it all! haha but its finally mine i cant wait to get it home!!

            this will be a long term, every nut and bolt, bare metal, fully detailed project.
            i dont have a budget and i dont have specific ideas in mind as yet, but i will be doing things alot more different compared to my wabit project.

                ol mate from wolfsburg automotive had a pair of these in his driveway last time i looked, if you need a spare shell and don't mind dealing with the **** then he could be worth a call.

                looks mint, good luck with it dude.

                  as far as i know this thing is immaculate! only issue with the car is interior is screwed due to bush sun killing it, and in his recent old age, the owner ran the front guard up against something which can easily be repaired but ya never know, might have to give wolfsburg a call some day!

                        Picked the car up yesterday.

                        Has Air Con, 8 Track, Venetian and all the books with it.
















                        Pretty tidy car. Not a "Minter", but definitely a good base. And being from Orange pretty much it's whole life, it's dry as a bone.

                          **** YEAH!!! going to pick it up from preens house next weekend!! big thank you to chris for helping me to pick up the car from the original owner last week, thanks buddy

                          for some reason i originally thought this car had a tan colored interior but it actually has black vinyl..... which works out for me because i recently bought a whole black vinyl interior from a porsche 924, most enthusiasts might know them as "Tombstone" seats

                          before the restoration it will be airbagged with the porsche seats, car will get a general tidy up and service and some nice wheels

                          cant wait for next weekend!!!!

                              Thats a nice way to start a project.
                              Do you have some good parts suppliers sussed out yet?
                              I found a few when hunting for super90 parts so if you get stuck i'll send you some links.
