Thanks Terrance........I only need the manifold itself, my TBI unit isn't leaking a drop of fuel or coolant.

Just shits me now I've done this three times already!!!!

Admire the progress as usual Andrew, exciting shit!

Count me in for a set of the decals too, though any chance of making a special request to the colour & lettering when the time comes?

Just sent this to Infinity signs:

User Name: Andrew Moultrie
To whom it my concern,
I'm currently restoring a 1986 AC Cordia turbo, I require the side decals to be re-manufactured before paint. The main north road store re-made my JA Starion ones a few years ago now which I was very happy with.
The "turbo" decal will be easy to reproduce as it's red over silver....the only problem I can see is the actual running side decals (guard and door) turn from red to silver by use of "dots".(See pics)
This will obviously be costly as a print job is required...can you give me a rough cost as I would like to purchase 10 sets for the cordiapower car club.

Cheers,
Andrew.

Just need to wait for a reply. :)

Daaaaamn that sucks about the manifold :( Cordias like leaking!!?? unbelievable!

The spoiler looks great!! looking at my red cordias under the carport going all wrinkly..... makes me just want to have it flush on my white one. But yours make me smile! I have done a few things to mine and should be uploading them as soon as i can work out how to send from photobucket....

Looking great Andrew! i'm learning how to do body work as you progress along. Massive help

Thanks Adam, with photobucket just copy the IMG code and paste into the post.

Yeah......the manifold is a pisser.......best to go through them now rather than be stuck on the side of the road. :(

Also noticed that the turbo drain pipe is leaking from the flex joint.........not bad for a car that hasn't gone anywhere!!!!

OK............long time no update, have been busy with work (I now have a new job as a technical rail trainer) and painting all of the side moldings satin black............well.........I have purchased paint, for those who know me well that was an adventure due to the banks being offline.

Anyway, sprayed the grille and added two coats of clear, yet to do the blackouts and add the badges:

Sprayed the front and rear valance, yet to clearcoat:

Threw a little paint on the drivers side to see how it looks:

Once a warm day arrives the whole car will be done. :)
