Quick post as a new member to say "hello".

I bought my 1987 Bertone last April as a non-runner but with 3 months MOT - found it stored under a canvas in a garden in Manchester. New fuel pump, condenser and putting the plug leads on the correct plugs got her running again and passed the MOT in June with only a noisy wheel bearing needing sorting.

She's rusty in the normal places - rear wheelarches, screen bottom, doors etc, but key structural areas seem OK. Have done a few mods - electric fuel pump, manual choke etc.

Looking forward to using her more this summer - hopefully have now sorted out the regular fuel starvation breakdowns by draining the fuel tank and removing a load of silt....

I would post a couple of photos of the car but can't work out how to do it on here.....

Cheers

Dave
