Hi I'm kevwill, currently at the start of a restoration on a 1982 124 Spider 2000 California car. I bought it at the end of August.
It's been in (not always dry) storage on and off with the engine and box out for over 10 years. The previous owner broke the oil take up pipe going over a severe speed bump, the crank seized, had it ground and bought new shells and lost interest. I purchased it blind on ebay from the second owner who returned to the UK from Canada with it.
The pic is it loaded on ready to be delivered to me.
At least a 2 year project, I think.
I haven't worked on cars for over 40 years.
More later & questions/advice I suspect.
