you may have seen the trayback on facebook in canberra
i told the guy i would take it, now have to organise transport
have a couple of leads but would appreciate any advice
it is not running at the moment but comes with a gti engine and most of a stock sierra 1.3 but missing the carby.
I am picking i will put a normal engine back in it rather than going for the conversion but will most likely sell the gti engine at a later stage.
unless we want to do a wiring loom at wandin :D but not really... but maybe... but not really.

Nice. That car looked sweet.

Do the conversion. If you like it, awesome. If you don't you can sell it as a complete drop in rather than a bucket of parts for someone else to troubleshoot.

Good point Steve but I have to have it up and running by feb.
And that means finding a could tank I think and doing exhaust etc right? Or is it the same block?
I will have the car here on Saturday $750 later.

Anyone got a spare stock sierra engine complete?
I may be looking for one

I won't be able to club register it without a engineers very for the gti engine and might be financially not worth it
