[QUOTE="Tor, post: 609320, member: 21887"] From what i can see, you have a good start. Little bit of rust, very normal on those cars. Give that some attention. Can´t see from pictures if you can recover the paint by rubbing it down, and do touchup on rust-spots, or if you need a whole pain-job? From what i can see the color looks like Schwarz (086). Interior is worn at places, but it looks like a easy repair. Dash looks clean (no sun damage). Engine Runs?? That could be the most expensive to restore. But the sound of healthy a M30 engine doing 120 on North-South Expressway will relax you at 2500 rpm compared to a Proton doing 5000 rpm at same speed :) What ever you do, never run your engine overtemp. That was an expensive repair. Keep us posted with your project. Thanks for pictures, and good luck with project.. :) [/QUOTE]
