Too bad that the pic of the red-coupe is oversaturated.. That thing was HOT!! Superclean, just the original C-coupe lines, sporty, pretty...amazing car.

I think Doc should also have a pic of a C-limo that we saw parked at a rally stage. White car...lets hope he chimes in.


By the way: good luck restoring this European AE86!! Normally I would have thought that the rust is too extensive, but after checking some British sites my perspective has changed. pretty much anything is possible.

Yesterday finally got a rebuilt starter,mounted it and started to bang myself in the head.
The engine is dead,i forgot to try it on crankshaft before i installed the starter.

So i did some work today

I was in garage since 7 AM (sleeping only from 5AM-7AM ) ,did some work on one of my brothers Fiat Uno,and after that did some work on my Kadett.
Removed the head,and saw that the upper part of the cylinders is ok,and the crankshaft probably doesn't work,so i decided to pull the engine out.




















My oh my misfortune got me



Gonna dissasemble the engine in a few days.

Cheers.

Disassembled the engine today and found out that it's just stuck a bit.
Crankshaft is ok,and also the clutch is very good.
Gonna lubricate it good and than put all together in a few days.











Cheers.

Ah finally some luck then Had it been standing still to long or something?

[a112]

Probably,i first thought the crankshaft is pretty much not working,but when i disassembled the whole thing found out it's probably stuck and standing still too long.
I hope it's going to start,wish me luck.
