Hi folks
Thanks for the acceptance
I've just bought a 1968 p6 2000sc with the intention of stripping and restoring it
Someone has already had a go a few years ago and while they arrested any serious corrosion the quality of workmanship is very poor eg poorly fitting fiberglass panels and the oversills are right at the front and an inch gap from the bottom of the door at the back
First job is a starter motor rebuild it doesn't stay engaged when engine is warm been quoted 93 quid to rebuild it
Next is the radiator while not overheating severely it has cold spots and has been repaired several times. Suggestions please
Apart from that mechanically it seems fine starts on the button no smoke no unseemly rattles or bangs. I'm sure there will be more nasties when I delve deeper but it is a midlife crisis cure after all
