Opinion

Hi, what is the general opinion of you guys about turning a standard Uno, say Uno Start into a UT????

If the bodywork is good then go for it. There are some very nice conversions on here.
I've owned a good few Uno turbo's but have always wanted to start off with a clean standard uno. I've just bought a mk1 engine,turbo,gearbox,looms and ecu's so will be looking out for a standard Uno over the next few months.

an original uno turbo is always going to be more sought after for collectors, but a reshell or starting off with a standard uno is absolutly fine.

I have no problem with it whatsoever! go for it!

Dunc

the shells are identical so imo makes no difference

Cheers, it's just something I've been thinking about, as trying to get hold of a really good turbo is difficult and no doubt will be expensive.
I had the chance of one, but it needed work and I had nowhere to keep it.
If I got an engine and all the bits I could store them and then get the conversion done at my mates garage as he will be doing the work he would keep it there. (He just wouldn't store a car for me as it would take up the space for other customers cars, it's his living etc!!!)
