Sweet! Did you encounter any problems along the way?
Reason I ask, I’m working on my turbo ... and one year it’s still in progress!

Welcome back... it has been a while.
Looks like you didn't really need to do too much to get the old girl back to her former glory.
Have you got the centre cap badges too.?
I got mine from an ebay seller from Spain.
They look very nice and original.
Headlining - you may as well rip the old lining off it's fibre glass backing, and stick on some fresh cream coloured perforated vinyl.
The old foam backing will just crumble into a messy yellow powder.

Re: My 1993 SRI Redtop
Actually I found a few all with a few minor dings and scratches... but didn’t bother at first. Since my bonnet has the Astra gsi vents - which I don’t like on the cav turbo, So for me practically cheeper to get another bonnet then to fix existing one with fabrication time.corrigan wrote: there was no boot floor in the one I toke the bonnet off lol car was driving the best but was stone rotten. where did you find the new bonnet ?
Couple of my mates had some vg second hand ones, problem is delivery / pickup
Re: My 1993 SRI Redtop
