There's a nice LE in there. Is it worth reshelling?

The size of the hail... OMG! I was right Injekciona, was your car also damaged? You were in Torino with your yellow Coupe, weren't you? Yes, I was in Torino - the yellow Coupe with "Trip To Torino" decal on the windshield. My car is also damaged but not as much. Several major dents on the hood and on the roof and small dents on all other details.

Can't believe your luck Kaci, sorry if I jinxed it in a previous post Those stones could have killed somebody! The reports were quick to mention the explosion in insurance claims on car damage - just hope you can salvage something out of this.

Yes, Coupé has a insurance, but it is unlikely to help for restoration. Nevertheless, I will try at all costs to revive this car. I will inform you what is happening. I put and picture from the roof of Venice: Cheers.

I have only just seen this thread. What a disaster. I am very sad to see your car in this condition. Your car was a really nice example.

Thanks for the sympathy, guys. I will do everything possible to restore the car. I know it costs a lot of money and time, but I don't have a heart to kill LE Coupe. Cheers.

Hi forum, hi old friends! After seven years I think it's time to write again in this topic At the end of last year, the car was taken out of the garage where it had rested for six years and work on body panels slowly began. I send a Coupe to a dent repair company(PDR technology) and she's almost done. I really wanted after the repair that there was no body filler on the panels and the videos show that this was achieved. https://youtu.be/iwzWyA9iVug https://youtu.be/MmT-qMEg4y8 Some friends gave me a parts, others - helped find and transport them. Last week I ordered and a full set silicone water hoses from TWINZ MOTORSPORT.... There is still a lot of work to be done, but the first few steps have been taken! Be healthy and I hope to write again soon with a good news. Cheers, Kaci

After several months waiting the hoses finally arrived! I'm not impressed from their quality, but I will write an opinion when (if) I install them! The UK's exit from the EU is creating problems for Coupe owners in Europe

After several months waiting the hoses finally arrived! I'm not impressed from their quality, but I will write an opinion when (if) I install them! The UK's exit from the EU is creating problems for Coupe owners in Europe Hard to beat Viper hose kits Yes, I’ve been caught out myself, it was actually a group buy on here for a hose kit. Turned out it was not the bargain it was meant to be. Other things have been a stainless steel manifold that have stuck in my mind. Stick to proven known parts, then again it’s hard to sift out the duds at times.
I'm an old git & happy with it,most of the time
