This example of Renaults R8G was purchased in Melbourne during September 2013 for $27,500, having had three previous owners from new. This car was in reasonable shape but needed quite a bit of repair and restoration to be an enjoyable daily drive and to participate in classic racing events.

The restoration was done by Ray Watson at Gecko Engineering over an 18 month period and included majour work including: 

The body, being resprayed in Gordini Blue, minor panel repairs were also done at this point.

Replacement of rubber seals.

Rebuild engine.

New Exhaust.

Gearbox rebuild.

Electrics overhaul.

This is a perfect car for someone who is not wanting to rebuild a car, it is fully restored and and ready to drive. The pictures speak for themselves.

This was for sale at the end of January in Australia for $80,000 AUD.
