Tipo (Classic) my pride and joy sedicivalvole

Introduction

well thought it was about time i listed my tipo in the members motors.

i bought her in january 2007 as a none runner for £400. i had another mk2 which i had bought about 18 months earlier but it was rotten underneath so stripped the engine out and fitted it into my present one. i am on with rebuilding the original engine so i can drop it back in but its slow going as its not cheap getting parts.

i have done quite alot to her but still got plenty to do aswel to get her how i wont her. i am on a look out for some recaros if anyone knows of any for sale?

here is some pictures of some of the things i have done to her to date

this is when i first got her on the road. alot of sweat and blood had been lost at this point but it was worth it.

well i hope you all like her cause i love her more than the misses lol
mk1 fromt end looks much better to me... what did u do with mk1 grille? i would like to buy it if u are selling it... mine is broken :(
 
just a quick update on my tipo, finally managed after years of trying, to get some recaros for her, which i fitted towards the back end of last year :D.
not done much more to her yet but hoping to get somemore bits done this year (if the funds are available that is). will keep you posted
 
Definately looks better with the white rims. Personally I wouldnt put any graphics on it, looks awesome as it is.

Whats the interior like? Clean? Worn?

Indeed I do! The black one L372 HAN was mine up until 1997. Small world, eh? :)
