Hi Guys , been a long time reader but thought it time to join in with a couple of pics of my new toy, these were taken today , after the weekend I hope to add a few of the cleaned up version
 
I believe it to be a genuine 79 rally pack in factory colour , has been off the road for 10 years 
 
Came with a heap of spares and heaps of new parts such as rubbers , carpets etc
 
Has brand new completely retrimmed RS front and rear seats which will be going into my RS .This 1 being returned to std factory look , I already have a perfect set of retrimmed perforated buckets for the front , floor brackets also on their way to be fitted
 
Only downside is a defect notice for several small things , this will create a heap of work to return the car to std but its a great starting point
 
Painted 4 or so years ago , has 14 inch globes and sounds great , purchased as a non runner but it only took me 5 minutes to get it going with a battery , fuel in the carb and a few turns , drove it home on a trade plate and now ready for some work
 
Looking for a stock exhaust and perforated rear seat if anyone in SA / other areas can assist , just for starters
 
Cheers Craig

Cheers Glenn
 
No Rush on the pics , as you can see wont be needed for a while , plenty to do!

Great project. What a bonus having the RS seats in it.

doms old rally pack... 
so whats the plans
 

Hi Sundowner / Ratta tat tat ,  the lad I purchased from has owned for at least 8 or 9 years but yes the previous owners name was Dom
 
Love to know any history you have
 
The last owner has done a heap of work to it but my plans are to remove the defect by going back to original then once rego'd to make some suttle changes
 
One of the main reasons for purchase is a near enough brand new fully retrimmed set of RS seats that I am going to fit to my RS so they were a real bonus
 
Hope to work on the car tomorrow to clean it up and post a few more pics
 
Cheers Craig
