it already has a rear disc conversion, weber carb with manual choke, lowered on coilovers. very solid underneath and no sign of any rust.

so much planned for it, full restore of interior, tidy up of exterior and fresh paint, new wheels and arches(arches are cracked) bigger engine in the future. so much planned

lots of pics to be uploaded, as will need advice and help.

thanks

at a glance I would say it already has 90 spec arches/sill covers and bumpers on it.

I bought this stereo the other day and it came today, and im very unsure how to fit it as its not as easy as just plugging it in because of how old the car is

need some help/advice, I understand where the power cable goes but unsure on other wires..

Have you got a live tester. The stereo wires split up basically into two halves. it's the brown, green, purple, white half (solid and striped) which is the speaker wires and correlates to front right and left and rear right and left. The other half of the wires are earth, constant live and ignition live. I'm trying to remember them all without looking, a live tester is kinda needed, you could link a bulb with some wires to make a tester, then just earth one wire and use the other wire to test for live, if the bulb comes on its a live wire.

Looks like someone has wired in an Amp at some point. Is it still there?

Unless your using some big speakers don't wire to the amp as you lose all ability to set fade and bass etc from the head unit. My amp only powers the sub

That wiring looks like it was to a 4 way amp & all the speaker wiring looks like it will need redoing...
