Having owned Italian motors for almost 25 years now, hearing that the rust is confined to just outer panels and doors bottoms is a bonus  |

| I agree, yes its the green L reg 1 in the picture. It is cheap because although its a sound runner, the bodywork needs attention. All 4 doors & both wings need sorting due to rust, 1 door has a scrape in it too. |

Which green 16v? The one in your photo?
That's way too cheap. How are we going to raise values and profile, if we let them go for next to nothing? |

| The green 33 16v is now for sale again if anyone is interested, he is asking about £350 for it. It is taxed & mot'ed. |

Hi Alex, your green car was also originally owned by Stephen Dee. Confusing things further my Sue has a brother, Stephen, whose nickname is Dee  |

Not that much shame Jeremy!
Alex, The engine came from Steve Dee (Wolves). I've never had a block off of you. I gave you a block a couple of years ago in exchange for a Nardi steering wheel if that's what you are thinking of. |

John, I think it was Steve Dee who painted his air box but mine is going to be up for some renovation next year when the warmth returns!
The little strut is for the brake pedal, ie, to reduce sponginess. |

Ok i think Lee wins. You could eat your dinner off those inner wings 
Was it you who painted the airbox silver? Did you change it back?
Interested in that little strut brace bar on the drivers side- any more details?

Alex, It's just me being a pikey!
Having bought new badges before just to see them fade quicker than I got them on the car I decided to do my own 'individual' version. All it took was a very fine brush and a steady hand  Here's one on the production line!

Yeah, would definitely like to get along to one.
I'm only the second owner and mileage is aprrox. 46k. Paul will confirm that the engine bay almost looks like that of a new car! |
