Thread: Series 1 restoration project.

It's definitely a Series 1 86" firewall.

Thank you everyone, now I have to work how and where to start the resto

Yes, definitely Series 1, but it has been extensively modified, in some respects updated.

You will haveto decide whether to restore it in its "updated" form, or revert to original. Or something in between.

hi yes a wothwhile restoration jim ps if you require engine 56 era availablle jim

I have a complete 57 with a really bad chassis is all the running ok to use in the 55

The 57 engine/gearbox should be very close to the 55 Car , basicly just bolt it in. There's a few strange parts on the 1955 models but visually the same

Post up a pic of the 1957 engine bay if you're not shure it's a 2L spreadbore.
