If it's that bad, sounds like there's something more than needing an ECU amiss. Mrs Catman's 1.7 Sprint was nothing like that

If you don't mind me asking what body shop do you use?

Can't wait to get ours together sometime

Although over 20 years ago, I can't remember my 33 Permanent 4 being gutless below 3000 rpm. Actually quite the opposite, quite grunty!!
It was pretty stock, just a K&N filter element and Autodelta straight through exhaust.

I recognize that P4

Dicky, what are you going to do with all the spare time you will have when this is finally done?

safrane · Apr 25, 2016

Keep it up pal... worth it in the end.

StuartW · Apr 25, 2016

Looking good and best of luck for the coming months

mjheathcote · Apr 26, 2016

Looking great, can't believe its so long since you discovered the contamination and had to almost start again on the body.

general_piffle · May 4, 2016

Looking really good! Have read this thread with great interest

Alfa Muppet · May 5, 2016

Looks great so far

The hours that have gone into this car and at last it seems to be nearing completion well done for hanging in there

BennyD · May 15, 2016

One step forward and 5 steps back. Great perseverance mate, I'm impressed. Keep going and, in the end, you will have a car.

mjheathcote · May 20, 2016

Good work!
Isn't the rot in the in the panels you had to replace due to the chemical dipping not been neutralised properly though?

mjheathcote · May 20, 2016

Plenty of dinitrol/waxoyl etc etc...!

mjheathcote · May 20, 2016

Hopefully with your new panels and the dinitrol it should last.
Mine within 5 years old back in the 90's was not good, the doors were in a very poor state.

The power of rust especially on the older Italian and British never fails to surprise or shock me.
Nice cheeky shot of a SL Pagoda rear quarter

conaero · May 22, 2016

Is that a R5 Gordini there too?

I would say so.
Not seen one of those since the 80's

Alfa Muppet · May 23, 2016

Aluminium panels, mid engine and rear drive. I would imagine that will be some fun to drive

conaero · May 24, 2016

The only downside is that its a French car from the 80's, its going to be a painful experience, believe me, Ive been there!
