Thank you for everyone's responses thus far. I have removed the rear windscreen as it was half hanging off, it will obviously need re-fitting. I have kept the metal edging that fits within the seal in case they are unobtainable.

Now, with regard to performance upgrades, I have uploaded some pictures to see if any of you guys can tell me anything. With my limited knowledge of this era of vehicle, the only clues I found were a weber sticker in the engine bay and what I believe look like aftermarket dampers with red springs . . . Does the carb look aftermarket? Can anyone see any other goodies under the bonnet?

I have no idea what to value it at and I have had a few people contact me with a view to buying it. Chris, any help with a valuation would be great smile

Thanks for all the input

Just because a side draft Weber looks cool...(I have never seen one before on a Essex V6). I think we need LOTS more pictures of the car.
PLEASE.
I presume that the rear screen is perspex and the screen has popped in and down and out. screen seals and chrome are on the shelf.

I have just spoken to a very helpful pistonheader and he has confirmed some of the performance modifications to be accurate. I now believe that everything on the invoices was done in 1989 which is good news. How much do people think this will increase it's value by?

The rear screen is perspex, you're right Adrian. It's good to know that the parts are not obsolite yet smile I will add more pics now.

With regard to the chassis, it looked fairly solid when I poked around it today. Obviously there was some surface rust on the outriggers but it all looked structually sound.

I really appreciate everyone's input

The small bolt/rubber that holds the tail pipes to the chassis has come away and will need replacing, hence the exhausts are hanging a few inches lower than they should
