Renault Alpine GTA ATMOS (Restored) used daily

Renault Alpine GTA ATMOS
One of 16 normally aspirated Renault Alpines built in 1989!
I bought this Alpine last year in completely original condition after being stored in a garage since 2007. Completely original in every way with a lovely folder of documents. This Alpine has been cherished for many years by previous owners having been on the AOC club stand in France in 2004!
I have fully restored this Apline GTA having invested over 200 man hours! the restoration has been done sympathetically. I have tried to retain some of the age to reflect the amazing original condition it was in when I purchased it.
Work done: ChassisSteering rack chassis member has been removed and a replaced by replicating the member in every way. Both upper wishbone mountings have been replaced. The right hand bulk head/floor section has been re-fabricated and replaced. Both rear out riggers have been re-fabricated and replacedRear suspension turrets stripped of sealant and re-sealed (no welding required)Rear subframe inspected (no welding required)New Steering rack bootsBodyBoth doors and roof leading edge have had the fibre glass rot (bubbles) cut out. new fibre glass has been used to repair the sections which is disease free will ensure the Alpines new coach work remains bubble free for years to come.  Leading edges of the wings have been straightened -  this was Renaults first attempt at plastic wings and they look wavy so I couldn't help but address this as it just looked sorry for itself!The Alpine was then stripped and fully resprayed. colour sanded and polished leaving perfect gleaming red coach work. The paint applied is two pack so will be hard wearing and durable for years to come. ElectricsEverything works. door solenoids. electric windows. lights. interior/exterior fan. washers wipers. speedo etc. for those of you that know Apline's the fuel gauge didn't really work from day one! I have modified the fuel tank sender to accept a mechanical level float and installed a mechanical gauge in the vehicle. you can now drive with out worrying about the fuel level!InteriorNew Mats are the only addition here. although the Alpine has done 126000 miles the drives seat. pedals. steering controls. gear knob show no signs of wear! I can only assume this was a motorway miles car back in the 90s.
In a nutshell the above is the basics to the restoration. it's not concourse but that was not the goal. to make a perfect immaculate Alpine GTA was the idea. an Alpine that can be used every day and enjoyed was the goal which has been achieved! 
You are welcome to the view the Alpine any evenings or at the weekends.
