Picked up this morning is another 16v Turbo from the same guy as the silver one. This one had been colour changed from silver to yellow but as it has been standing fo a while - it is rather rusty. I fear it will be a breaker but it definitely has some interesting items on it as the guy said "once you pulla special lever, all hell breaks loose!" Very interesting, and i am waiting for his e-mail to fully explain what happens and how. Anyway, here are some pictures - please enjoy:

As it had sat for a while



Our first meet













Running with just a boost from the battery pack





Question



Driving















On the truck

















Back Home





Cool

I don't think this one will be saved - but as it has leather - there will be some helpful parts there.

Another good haul!

The riveted bodykit is a shame and it's not complete. Yeah, unless the shell is excellent, I think that's a strip clean job for parts.

Keep 'em coming ...
