Title: Just bought a delta 1.6 turbo Post by: Daytonadream on 10 February, 2010, 08:53:35 AM Hi,
Just bought a Delta 1.6 turbo as a project collect it Saturday so don't have all the info just yet. However,can anyone advise did the Detla come with rear roof spoiler and side skirts or as I guess they are add on's. I know the rear parcel shelf (grey) will need to be replaced and will need a set of original wheels,anyone got items for sale. The head has been skimmed ready to refit which my son will do for me so once it's sorted I'll report back.Oh it's lowered at moment so this will have to be put back to standard so yes lots to do, some rust around roof panel and rear o/s wing . The reg is F113 MNM. Anyone know the car! it's white. Stu Title: Re: Just bought a delta 1.6 turbo Post by: DavidLaver on 10 February, 2010, 09:14:19 AM Congratulations!! (...I think...)

Getting very rare these days, I had one of the launch cars back in 1984 and keep thinking I should find another Title: Re: Just bought a delta 1.6 turbo Post by: Mike8v on 10 February, 2010, 05:04:04 PM Im afraid Iv only got 1 hf turbo alloy but Iv stuck it on fleabay but if your interested then please let me know, and just out of curiosity is the spoiler genuine or a fiber glass copy

Good luck with the car, Mark..

The aim is to get it up and running so the head has to be refitted all the bits in boxes have to be sorted out! I know new hoses will be required, looked at silicone from samco via demon tweeks ,the thing is I don,t know what sizes or how many due to the state of carnage in the engine bay! can someone advise what I need or a kit number /supplier that can supply a full set? will also need a radiator. The sill spoilers/covers are fibreglass as is the rear roof spoiler. Thought it was white but the original colour looks to be grey/silver Anyone know it's history the reg again is F113 MNM... VIN NO ZLA831ABOOO457973 ENGINE NO 00897938 showing 78k miles. Thanks Stu Title: Re: Just bought a delta 1.6 turbo Post by: fensaddler on 14 February, 2010, 02:14:02 PM Stu - I'd suggest a call to someone like Neil Smith at NJS in Pershore. He knows his way around Deltas and should be able to advise on a lot of this sort of issue - and probably help you source some of the kit that you need. Tanc Barratt also may be useful, though he can be a. pricey and b. not always the most user friendly of people...

As you will have surmised from my previous posts I am putting my engine back into the dark empty hole at the front via bits from the boxes! Some good colour pictures of how it should look would be a great help . So if someone has a 1.6i turbo hf could you please email me with some attached images. Many thanks Stu |
