Picked it up a couple weeks ago (02/04/2011), and have spent the last 7 days working on it, basically just getting this one ready for redo while I wait for the N600 to be done at the painters, it seems to have a good engine, no rattles or smoke etc.

problems/ fixes: had no starter generator on the motor (installed a spare i had)
dodgy regulator (replaced) wouldn’t run on fuel from the tank (replaced fuel tank and fuel gauge both were rusted badly) all brakes were leaking (cleaned and rebuilt with new seals) worn drivers cv joint (replaced with spare) cv joint boots split (replaced)
steering boots split (replaced) handbrake didn’t work (refitted and adjusted)
had other small things like broken steering wheel, steering column was is a million pieces. (all now fixed) had dirty great big stickers all over it ( removed)
also repainted all the badges on it.
