Hi guys, I am a new member to the board, I was previously going to pull the motor from this 1990 TSTE I bought and swap it into my Beretta, but the car is in such good condition for its age, I'm going to restore it instead.  It's been in storage for 4 years and just yesterday I started it up and took some pictures.  I'm going to get the paint touched up and replace the obvious broken parts.  I was able to get a crossover pipe on Ebay a few years back, the crossover pipe had 30,000 miles on it, so I know it won't leak.  I'll have to probably pull the motor and replace all the gaskets and rebuild the turbo.  I will gradually post pictures of my progress, but this car won't be going to the crusher.  Who knows how many rare 4 door TGPs are left out there.  Share your thoughts with me on what you think.  You can check out a bunch of pictures here: http://s672.photobucket.com/albums/vv85/MGlovis/TGP/

Welcome to the board. It looks like you've got a pretty solid TSTE to start with. With a little cleaning + paint, that car would look really nice.
