Description:
Wondering if anyone would be interested in a swap. I've had my summer fun now.
It's my 1987 Vauxhall Cavalier 1.8i Convertible of which only 1200 were made and only 30 are currently road legal. It's got a years MOT but being an old car that was stored for years it has issues.
It definately needs a new roof and I think the clutch release bearing is noisy. I've a new cambelt and water pump to be fitted too. It will also need a replacement front screen. A stone chip at the top has crazed out.
I've replaced the awful 17" multis for 15s and also have the original 13s that came on the car.
There is a bit of rust over the offside wheel arch.
Starts first time but it's a bit lumpy to start. Really needs a proper service.
New discs and pads on the front and new drums pads and cylinders on the back and all bled through. It's also had new fuel lines.
New front grill fitted but I've not had time to wire in the Hella spots.
Driver seat has wear to the bolster but they're all working well and are original.
I fixed the petrol gauge and the heater fan.
It's almost 40 years old so it's going to need fettling. It's a rolling restoration and usable classic rather than a perfect looker but it does definitely turns heads.
I've done 800 miles since the MOT and it's driven well with no issues.
I've tried to be as honest as possible here.
40k miles possibly 140k!
