I say leave it as is untill youve finished current projects then decide what to do with it. I would get it back to how it was in the 80's.

it is funny how people will advise to get another engine if the old one is knackered, but opinion is split about reshelling it............
the shell is only a single part.
in the uk, it is absolutely fine to reshell a car & it is allowed to keep its registration number, as long as the engine, drivetrain, steering & suspension is original.........
never seen one of these before, i think it looks pretty cool, think the earlier wheels on the first mattig publicity photo look best, re-shelling gets my vote

Erm you only need the shell to keep the registration iirc.Quote:

Reshell it mate
Put some Leepu 8" spacers on it and attach a fresh pair of 19's.
Then spend the next 4 years getting the body ready for the grip.
