Poor Uno LOL.
I see you’re keeping Johnny from working on his own UT project for a while – Hope he swaps his shell with you – you best hurry up and find a good one to swap.
Keep the pictures coming!

omg, your right about there being a lot of work to do but your doing well and keep the pics coming
I hope you've labelled what each and everything is and where it should go dunc! Always a good idea to take pictures for reference too. Otherwise it can be a nightmare to put it all back together again. My uno turbos nearly ready now. Cant wait to take her out for a spin in the sun

Ouch!
Looks like you have a lot of work there Dunc, good luck with it all.
Must admit that I can related to the pic of the interior with all that spaghetti wiring all over the place. All I did recently was change the dashboard and add some wiring, and that was bad enough. You're changing the whole car
Really hope you get it all back in one piece with a new shell so your reborn Uno can go and kick some Saxo ass
. Any luck in finding one yet?Keep us posted with more pics. We all need a dose of car porn

Best of luck with the re-shelling Dunc.
The stripped out shell brings back some memories for me as well.......
My escapade involved a Mk1 3-dr 45, a Strada 1500 engine, bits of Uno 55s and Mk1 Turbo! lol
Hope you're making progress.

Good to see the turbo project back on track Dunc!
Nice price you got that for too. And the diesel has the anti-roll bar plus stiffer suspension, though I suspect you already have a suspension set up waiting in hand
So we can expect a flurry of spanner twirling over the coming weeks eh?!!!!

Well done Dunc
Now you and Johnny will end up matching Unos
Now you and Johnny will end up matching Unos
right, went to pick the uno beast up last nite and well im disapointed
basicly, its ok but not tidy enough to warrent me reshelling into. it was cheap so im not bothered so im gonna whack it through its mot and flog it on. the reason it was cheap is cos the windscreen had been smashed by vandles, so me and a mate took a spare screen with us and fitted it there and then and drove back the 70 miles hehe!
anyway, its a solid car, just not tidy enough for me, so will be MOTed and sold on.
