General Punto 55 SX

[SteveePunto]

Hi there everyone! im new to the Forum!

i bought myself a 55sx ast year as my first car! had a few bits done to it already.. new exhaust and tyres for example! There is a piccy of it in my profile and in my gallery(will post more later)

didnt cost much when i bought it and for my first car its pretty good.

what do you all think i should do to it... im thinking of leaving this one standard as its only a 1.1 55sx, and buying myself another punto to work on as a project?

Stevee!

1242cc engine would bolt straight in, so you could do it up, then in a few years with ncd insurance be cheaper so could stick the bigger engine in.

might be better to get a seperate project though as working on a car you need to drive too ends up getting rushed or not done at all

Thats what i was thinking as im on shift work and i need to travel to get to work everyday! i have a garage spare with enough room to store parts so i thought a project would be best! any recomendations for a project punto of some sorts? maybe a gt.. or 1.2 16v?

theres not many GTs that are good, 1.2 16v with a dead engine and fit a 1.4 out of a stilo is a good project
