1 - ***SOLD***
1994 1.8 Eunos 'S' Limited in Laguna B NOW COMPLETED - See Finished pictures below Although this car has now been sold, we have now sourced another car that we consider worthy of a ground up restoration. Like the car shown, it is a completely original car that has no welding on it and we consider it to be 'Rust free'. It would be an ideal opportunity for someone to have a car completely built to heir own specification. This will probably be the last car we restore before my retirement in late 2020. Phone for further details We shall continue to update this page until the completion of the car. |

Underside of the car after it had been pressure washed and all loose and flaking underseal has been removed. Where the bare metal has been exposed, it has been bare metal treated - then 2 coats of underseal. You can see from the finished result how good the underneath of this car is. Those who are very observant will note the drain hole tubes have been removed so that we can make sure they are completely clean before replacing them back in.
All the cavities of the car have been treated with the best quality wax oil on the market.

Photos below shows a few of the wishbones after being acid dipped which removes ALL rust from the components. As you can see they are now like new and will have rust prevention treatment before being sprayed with Epoxy Primer then Acrylic two pack Black paint. We do this instead of powder coating as we find that when powder coating is hit by stones, water then gets under the coating and it lifts off very quickly - therefore we prefer acrylic paint.
Body shell and fittings are in Epoxy primer.

First coat of Epoxy Primer is now on the car. It will have all bodywork imperfections sorted out (i.e all small dents and scratches) before applying a further 2 coats with thorough sanding between to flatten out the finish. Currently on it's way to being the original 'Laguna Blue' colour

2 - 1995 Mk1 1.8 Eunos - VR Ltd
Selling on behalf of a customer who bought this car from us around 5 years ago. It has covered around 130k miles and seems to be in good mechanical order. MOT till 16/05/20 and had recent new tyres fitted. Imported into the UK in 2005. In the five years of ownership, it has covered only around 2,500 summer miles and dry stored in the winter. Arches are in good condition.
The car has had some recent welding to the offside sill that is a usual garage repair that looks fairly strong but not done to a specialists standard. Having said that you have to look fairly hard to notice it and should be perfectly serviceable for a few years. Underneath is pretty solid although we did notice a small hole the size of a 50p piece that the MOT station had obviously missed but it is so small it may have been mistaken for a drain plug hole - again - being really picky and not a major problem. The passenger side paintwork could do with some attention although it may be rectified by a good machine polish.
All in all, a good project for someone who is looking to purchase a rare car at a knock down price. We would expect that with a little TLC and a jolly good fettling, this car could be achieving £4.5k. If our workshop was not so busy, we would be bringing this into our stock but alas it would be sitting around for too long before we had chance to sorting it out.
Located in Berwick upon Tweed.
