Finally got another S2

[HORCH]

well first of all it needs a good wash and a hoover out because its sat in a unit for a while and collected ALOT of dust, the insides not bad just a couple of mouldy bits but it just wipes off, the cylinder head and stuff that goes with it needs putting back on because the head gasket blew on the previous owner, but apart from that it looks to be a good car, its solid as a rock and clean as a whistle underneath, its all standard as far as I know apart from the two screw on pedals on the clutch and brake which are coming off, I dont know what kind of green it is but its very green, its that green the interiors even green haha! it reminds me of a snooker table haha but I love it, it goes nice with the body colour and the black carpet and dash etc, its got opening rear windows which is a bonus and a tape holder in the centre console which I've always wanted cos I still listen to tapes haha, I've got my old elipsoids I kept from my other S2 to go in aswell! its got air conditioning but I dont like air conditioning, if its not too big a job I might take it out? so already I know I need a head gasket set, sunroof seal, diff oil seals either side and thats it (for now) I cant wait to get it running again
so here it is, I only got it tonight, I'll take some more pics when its washed and outside, its a 92 reg I think by the way

Colour reminds me of the Wicked Witches face from the Wizard of Oz -

Nice little project you've got yourself there

thats the same state I bought my avant in. It had a blown head gasket, everything had been removed ready to accept new parts. All I needed to do was get the head skimmed and put it back together

That was last year. I've ended up stripping the bottom end for full rebuild; forged rods, new shells, piston rings, new head, 7a flywheel, uprated clutch..... list goes on

just warning you that you may get carried away

[HORCH]

yeah its just what I wanted really, well the head's still at the machine shop and its been ported and polished and new valve guides put in, I should be getting it next week,
I have thought about doing the bottom end while its half out but naah, its done 115k so it can do a few more first
like you say you can get carried away with these and if I do I'll get another engine to play with so the car isnt stuck in the garage for ages because I've missed having one for a while
its going to be fun putting it back together, its like a big jigsaw puzzle, what should be in the front is in the boot

what should be in the front is in the boot

Yeah I know that one
