Hii2all.

 

I've recently got my first Corrado, brought it as a long term project. Every 21 year old car has it's problems, fact.

And some more rust, the rear badge was hanging off, so I gave it a tug and off it come, this is what I found underneath;

So it needs some attention to say the least. Plans;

 

Cosmetic;

 

  • Rust & body Impurities sorted.
  • Completely new paint (Engine out ect)- The previous person had someone do a shocking job before. Undecided on colour. Ivory?
  • New wheels - Undecided.
  • Lowered on coilovers.
  • Full Leather.

 

Engine;

 

I want to get the most out of the 1.8KR. Engine will be out for paint so I'm going to be tidying the block up & replacing a fair bit. New clutch. New gaskets. General clean up & maintinance.

 

  • Stainless Manifold.
  • Stainless custom fabricated exhaust. Undecided on what I want to do.
  • Headwork. Again still doing my research on what's best.
  • Cams. As above, doing my research on what's best.

 

Any advise & comments appreciated. Thanks for reading.
