Once fully restored, how much would this car be worth.

In 2010 was in Germany a convertible for sale for € 29.500,-
It was a 1.6L gsl. non turbo!

When my car is finish, i hope €20.000,- i don't know but the car is unique.

How do you intend on addressing the under floor rust out of interest?

Do unattended cars get like that over there due to the salted roads in winter time? (We dont get snow here)

Looking great..........would it be easier to cut the roof off the blue one and weld the convertible panels onto that?

^^ good question. Either way keep posting the work your doing, you have a lot of it ahead of you.

Post subject:  Re: Cordia Convertible in restauration step by step.

it's not so easy to translate a coupé to a convertible. The convertible have a lot more metal panels and barrs in the construction. I go forward, step by step. I have not a final date but you can follow my hole restauration on this forum.
Thank you for follow my restauration.

For the Cordia freaks in Australia, when you go on hollyday to Europe.......you're welcome to see my project.
