Ok so here goes again with an Uno turbo, probably my 20th or so over the years 
My last project was just too far gone for me to get stuck into so sold up last year but have been looking for a runner ever since.
This example popped up on eBay a few weeks ago so after several phone calls it was mine and had I it delivered within a few days.
Its a 1990 G reg, mk2 1.4 8v turbo 118bhp version so 25 years old it was the 1st of the series 2 Uno turbos.
With only 5 previous owners and just over 100k covered it has proved to be a decent buy indeed, still sporting the original Radio cassette and gear knob coupled with the fact theres not a bleed valve in sight I think ive found the one to restore.
Obviously theres plenty to do on her with the paint work the largest job of all as its dreadfull due to being painted by the previous owner
All the welding has been done on it except a small hole on the rear inner arch, I indeed to strip the interior and zinc 182 the whole floor to seal it.
Any way heres some pics of it....
Sitting on Mk1 uno turbo alloys which ive changed further down
Came with an awful hacked up front grille which I'm about to change
Also had odd rear lights on the back which ive sorted further down
Interior abit grubby but all present
Collected the correct early turbo lights and a door solenoid to fix the central locking
Hacked up door loom wiring that ive now fixed
Then fitted my Comp Mo's with yoko's onto it
Rear lights fitted
anyway that's it for now but much more crack on with...
