Ok so here goes again with an Uno turbo, probably my 20th or so over the years

My last project was just too far gone for me to get stuck into so sold up last year but have been looking for a runner ever since.

This example popped up on eBay a few weeks ago so after several phone calls it was mine and had I it delivered within a few days.

Its a 1990 G reg, mk2 1.4 8v turbo 118bhp version so 25 years old it was the 1st of the series 2 Uno turbos.

With only 5 previous owners and just over 100k covered it has proved to be a decent buy indeed, still sporting the original Radio cassette and gear knob coupled with the fact theres not a bleed valve in sight I think ive found the one to restore.

Obviously theres plenty to do on her with the paint work the largest job of all as its dreadfull due to being painted by the previous owner

All the welding has been done on it except a small hole on the rear inner arch, I indeed to strip the interior and zinc 182 the whole floor to seal it.

Any way heres some pics of it....

Sitting on Mk1 uno turbo alloys which ive changed further down





Came with an awful hacked up front grille which I'm about to change



Also had odd rear lights on the back which ive sorted further down



Interior abit grubby but all present



Collected the correct early turbo lights and a door solenoid to fix the central locking



Hacked up door loom wiring that ive now fixed


Then fitted my Comp Mo's with yoko's onto it





Rear lights fitted



anyway that's it for now but much more crack on with...

Lookin good Vern! Nice to see you are still in the UT scene for so long. And as for the paint job, at least in the photos doesn't shock me, considering it was not professionaly done.

BTW, what happened to Turbocollective? it went dead all of the sudden, never to return... Oh, and i will be lurking here waiting for further updates!

Nice, nice. Can you give some info about wheels & tyres ? They look superb on Uno, specialy in that grey
