It's marmite for sure
But a lot of media stuff is skewed without having driven or owned one.
I am convinced you will like it

Hi all!

I'm the owner of #5063, which I had shipped from the states last winter. It hasn't run since the mid nineties, and the previous owner had started to bring it back to life before I got it. It came with most parts needed. My todo list is roughly as follows:
-fix brakes and clutch hydraulics
-renew fuel system (mostly done)
-fit water pump and do an intake (and ancillaries) refresh
-fit new interior
-have the bumpers painted

The parts I'm missing (that I'm aware of) are the side strips and a handbrake lever. Let me know if you have parts to spare ;)

My stamina is not the greatest; I need to see a project assembled and running in between major tasks to keep my motivation up. I have previously done all the jobs (on other projects) needed to get 5063 running, but not all of them on one single car...

5063 is currently living with my Fiat x1/9 and my Porsche 928 S4 which both are in great running condition, so I can dedicate all my attention to 5063 (knock on wood).

cheers,
