So I got this UK model right side drive GXL from a coworker before he moved. Cost me all of $1. It is driveable and the engine and tranny seem solid. It has lots of little surface rust spots and a couple bad cancer spots on the sunroof. Most electronics work.

My issue is that I have to have working headlights, no problem as I just need a bulb for one but both motors work solid and I have to have working wipers for an inspection before i can register it. The wipers are a different story. They seem to work fine on high and mist, but only occasionally work on low and will only work on low for 2-5 seconds before stalling out. I took the wipers off and the linkage out and cleaned/lubed everything but still the same. Does this point to a bad motor? Thanks fellas

 

No brotha its 99% the switch . Known problem for us . There's a few how to's to fix it on here. Post some pics of the 7

 

Well dang. I guess I will pull the switch and run some checks from that end. I've read a few threads on the switch repair. It doesn't seem too terrible. Thanks for the confirmation. I'll throw some pics up ony way out the door this morning

 

Cancer spot on the sunroof. It goes all the way through and is pretty nast on the bottom side. The seal where it meets the body is pretty bad too. Thinking of having the body work done to cut and repair the rust and then putting a carbon fiber sunroof in.

 

Dammit I want that steering wheel . I've seen I couple guys with it on here . Cool you guys got the side markers/blinkers over there . Been think about finding a set of au or euro fenders

 

Yeah man.. its pretty neat little car. Originally a UK model and then my buddy brought it over to Italy when he moved. He got a new car and to get rid of this one so it took it off his hands. I don't know a whole lot about them, but I'm slowly learning

 

Well you got a good start to a nice project brotha . Check out my build I got going . There are awesome rides to have ( for the most part lol )
