Almost finshed, fuel tank back on with new strap, brakes all plumbed in, exhaust fitted with some new Jetex clamps, bumper fitted etc. Just needs discs fitting with backplates then the suspension height can be set.

I'm hoping it will still be around in 20 years time. Can't imagine it being worth much though. Even mint 205's don't demand big money.

Ordered a pair of front Bilstein B8 Sprint dampers and H&R springs yeserday. Springs give a 30-35mm drop, the dampers are shorter than my previous ones so hopefully they will give a bit more suspension travel. When the Billies hit the bump stops inside they were very harsh so these should be better.
£380 from Motorsportworld...Hopefully they will arrive by this weekend. Then for the first time in 4 months the car can sit on it's own 4 tyres.

New bits arrived today...too nice to bolt it all together and I'll be coating everything in some wheelwax to helo prevent corrosion.
And a bit of a comparison between old and new.

The blue covers? Yes they came with them.
Back together now...forgot the big washers at the top of the damper under the top mount...so it's all coming apart again.
