Hi all

im new on here and just bought 2x X1/9's as part of a "Protitipo"project that ill show you as progress develops !

i am 'breaking' this very genuine 1988 Bertone car with only 55,000 miles so has not had too much abuse ! :woohoo:actually a shame to 'break' this car but i need a decent shell and 1500 engine and box

most parts are available ....apart from....

bodyshell
basic engine ( but engine ancillaries are)
gearbox

so everything else is .....eg

full (very good) interior / dash / carpets/ seats etc
alloys with very good tyres inc spare
all glass (except windscreen)
engine parts (except main block/ head)
fuel tank
suspension
all lights
full set of matching locks with 2 keys
body panels available and are ok'ish include bonnet , boot, engine cover, and both doors plus both front wings(very good !)

anything else required please just ask

email me any questions on murrayross1970@yahoo.co.uk

i live near Perth (Scotland) but travel down south frequently and will be at 'RaceRetro" / Stonleigh on Friday 19th Febuary and the 'Restoration Show' at the NEC on the 28th March so i would happily bring any items with me to save in carriage costs if it helps ?

many thanks for looking and i'm looking forward to having an enjoyable time with the X1/9 OC !

regards
Ally

Hallo Alistair
I also have an 88 Bertone 1500 and live on the Isle of Lewis - have you begun dismantling the car yet?
I have an intermittent problem with the fuel and oil pressure gauges on mine so maybe the complete dash would be a good investment if your gauges are ok?

I'm looking for a near side front wheel arch liner. I'm staying up near Blairgowrie this weekend. So if I could pick it up in Sunday when I drive home that would be great.
