Yes! It's official now! I've bought the car. Earlier this morning the seller and I agreed on the price etc. I'll be picking it up next Wednesday.

I will move the car to a friend's classic car workshop (10 mls to the NE) and start working there:
- drop the engine
- start cleaning all engine parts
- replacing the pushrod tubes and seals
- cleaning the engine bay
- taking off the tins for powder coating ( I can blast them myself)
- taking car of the spaghetti under the bonnet: new hoses etc.
- new tyres (just the original 165/15s - this time from Vredestein @52 euros a piece)

From there I will start cleaning everything under the bonnet etc.

The interior looks better irl than on the pics. Has to do with the flash of the camera. However... I know it's a totally original car, but I have my eyes set on the grey tartan seat covers.

A few pics!

Very nice interior with original radio (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smile.gif)
Very interesting to see the differences between EU and NA models. From what I can see this is a 73 2.0, but it didn't come with the console or the sway bars. Does it have Fuchs?
Also, there is a lot of seat belt going on there, middle passenger (IMG:style_emoticons/default/idea.gif)
Good luck with your project (IMG:style_emoticons/default/driving.gif) (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smash.gif)
