205 TT Dimma

[Daniel306]

This is my 205 turbo project, i found it in a garden where it has been sitting since 2004 after it cracked a piston.






Std and Turbo piston
























I am at the stage where i need a new shell, but trying to find one made after H with no sunroof and in good condition but not too good(i dont want to destroy a good one) is proving hard.

[Dum-Dum]

LOL thats epic, how much did you pay for it?

[procta]

how bad is the shell floor pan and sill wise? you may beable to cut off two rear quaters off a one in a scrappy and get them welded in.

[Daniel306]

£900, but its got 900 alone worth of new parts in the boot, new turbo still in packing from turbotechincs with receipt for £475, all parts for rebuilding engine, oil pump, bearings, arp head bolts, blackdiamond? clutch ...... the list goes on and all with receipts,

the shell is fubar, id prefer a no-sunroof anyway

[Matt]

£900?? Bargain, looks like will be a good project

[Daniel306]

I have got a 6 engine, was thinking about dropping it in but id prefer to rebuild the original, Iv also got 2 original rear wheels, just need two front, or two more rear, competitive want £98 each for outer split rims so i can convert them
