Introduction
Hi everyone,
It's my first time here so I thought I would share my project with the group,
About a year and a half ago we obtained decent nick (par some accident damage on the bonnet and passengers door, most importantly there was no rust# 750L from 1990 with about 29k on the clock. We chose the name Panda Baby and it has now become my project to get her back into shape.
First off, it's nice to see a place where everyone still talks about these classics, It's great to see people are still keeping theirs on the road.
When I started out I knew this project would become a labour of love to get her back into mint condition so here goes on the list of mechanical\cosmetic work done so far and what's left to do.
•Change belts.
•Change Head-Gasket #Blew up at about 35k#
•Full exhaust system change
•Front Windscreen replacement.
•Front discs, pads and calipers replaced.
•Front suspension arms and bushes replaced.
Front suspension ball joints replaced.
Changed R2 bulbs to their halogen equivalents.
•Starter motor replaced.
•Fuel pump and filter replaced.
•Set of wheels #x4 .
•New front indicator lens and switch.
•Wheel respray.
•Full t-cut, polish and petrol shine.
Engine petrol\valve cleaning\treatment.
Brake master cylinder changed
New Contact Set/Base Plate
New Points
New Distributor Cap
New HT Leads
New Rotor Arm
New water pump
Things left to do
•Drivers side wing replacement
