HELLO AGAIN AND WELCOME TO YET ANOTHER TURISMO PAGE.
THIS IS MY RECENT FIND. A 1987 WITH 26K ORIGINAL MILES. A ONE OWNER CAR FROM NORTH CAROLINA. RESTO1 TURNED OUT TO BE A LITTLE MORE WORK THAN I WANTED TO GET INTO, BUT THIS CAR WAS SO MINT I COULD NOT PASS IT UP, SO I DROVE DOWN TO GET IT AND DROVE IT HOME WITH NO PROBLEMS.
I TOOK THIS CAR TO A LOCAL CAR SHOW ALONG WITH THE RENEGADE AND IT GOT 3RD PLACE IN A UNRESTORED CLASS AND ALL I DID WAS WASH IT AND ARMORALL THE TIRES
I had to upgrade the suspension to KYB shocks and strutts, I tried to get OEM but they were so old the gas leaked out of them. I am going to upgrade to a WEBER non feedback carb and new exhaust system this summer and that should do it. The body work on the fender should be done in a few weeks.
06/08 update.
The fender was repaired and the entire car buffed out. I polished all the trim, repainted the mirrors, front bumper strip and replaced door handle decals. It's lookin almost new, but it will never be perfect, but for a 20 year old car it's good enough for me. A little more body work next year to finish it off. I should have the carb replaced THIS WEEK.
