Sounds like a good project - well done on getting it started. I really want to do a project like this. I have the space, not much money though, and not enough time! Hopefully next summer I might get the opportunity. Good luck with the project and keep us all posted.

:)Good luck, and good on you for saving another special old Skoda. Always happy to advise if needed.

this is a real budget project the car cost me 30 quid and my dad had skodas 4 years so i have a shed full of bits including a sports body kit and lowering springs lucky, im even going to try spray it my self:rolleyes: so just body parts and a few bits of trim to find

excellent news! a bit of bodywork here, some springs and nice wheels there, and one very nice car should emerge!

a 130... im guessing green or orangey red?

its like a duck egg blue,iv got a set of mini lights to go on as well so a bit of every thing realy just not sure what to do with the engine ,we will have to see i have a 136 lump in the shed if i need it:cool:
