Well done on getting back on the road. Have you documented anywhere on the site what work has been done? - I'm fairly local too (Wisbech) and it may be useful to have a recommended garage fairly close, I'm determined to have the spider on the road this year!
Rodders
only a hop skip and a jump away really!
not documented the works as yet this is the low down:
works were by Fiat and Alfa in Bury st Edmunds the car being taken there on a trailer, although running had stood for over a year. They are happy to take on these cars, the major issue was with obtaining parts. Some from Betaboyz, Omicron and good old ebay.
i have had done (please bear in mind i am not technical);
Head port and flowed with compression ratio taken to 10:1
new stainless steel exhaust (Betaboyz)
clutch reconditioned
rust treated and full respray
brakes overhauled completely
new rear shocks
wheels reconditioned and new tyres all round
new ignition and steering lock and repair to ignition electronics (previously temporary bypass of ingnition relay)
interior trim fixed back where needed
rolling road set up
there is more but i don't have the parts list/details with me, the parts, head work, exhaust, wheels and tyres were pushing £2500, labour £900 bodywork £2300 inc VAT
the ride and handling are excellent now
money well spent i say!
