Yes hate the wheels, been offered a set of the bbs deep rim ones for it which are I'm pretty sure the original ones but I have yet to view them.

The petrol pump needs replacing on this as the one on it was seized, now very noisy so I think that will be the 1st thing to do on this.

Also the sunroof doesn't work and I've heard they're a pain to repair but it's all fun.

Hmmm, seems the crankshaft oil seal is leaking, probably due to being layed up for so long.

Due to the seal needing replacement I may as well take the engine and box out completely, that way I can clean the engine bay up and change the colour of the car if wanted.

I'm unsure what colour to do it as of yet, I was thinking maybe orange?

Any ideas?

Had to be a solid colour though as I'm far too inexperienced to paint metallic.

Ahhh right, I can't spray metallic and I don't like British racing green in a solid colour.

If youre starting on some mechanicals Ste, change the alternator belt if its been sat up for a while. It also drives the water pump - Ive had one go on an E30 before, and it cost me a head gasket frown
