What a great starting point! Always nice to see original cars still turning up....not many out there in that condition. I’d just do the bits that need doing. You can always revisit in the future if necessary. Whatever you decide to do, document what you have as it will be a great reference going forward for other restorations. S2’s look great in black Enjoy!

....and now reunited with its body. Happy days!

Looks perfect to me!

Better?

A ‘stray’ JPS banner from 84 GP weekend at Brands nearly went the same way....until, in the dead of night (Saturday) i found someone sleeping in it!! That wasn't you was it?

....and also ‘my face has changed shape’ kind of performance!

Neither can we. Go on...you know you want to!

Loving all these photos! Am curious about the black strips under each side.

They just look so out of scale next to that taxi!

Don't let those customer Esprits get in the way of progress on this one! Looks fantastic and good to see it before its all hidden away.

Its had a very hard landing ‘Dukes of Hazzard’ style!

Hi Jason No idea. The chap just wanted them out of the way and I was happy to oblige.

A 5 stud variant with the webbing removed. How many variants of this wheel are there? This is now my chosen solution over the factory 4 hole variety I have.

....and the swap from rectangular centre vents to round in the facia. I have seen later dry sump’s with round, as well as twin louvre supports.

Mine is a little bit later maybe....but good enough for Mario and Elio.
