Thanks.. I'm gonna need itAmazing, I didn't know you had such a Renault car in the USA.
Good luck on your restoration project
Not much difference between the Canadian version and the USA version this far back; Canada was pre-metric then so the gauges are all imperial
Funny that the DeLorean is the most "common" car in my toybox.
Between the Renault and the Lotus Evora:

That was back before they figured out that they need to paint both sides of the steel panels.They had that amount of rust straight from the factory
I'm impressed any of those have survived at all.

Love it! Nothing handles like a Lotus (I know, preaching to the choir.)
As Jeremy Clarkson said "the only car I've ever driven, ever, which is a killer attack dog and an old sofa"

My 85 Chevrolet half-ton pickup. I use it it primarily on my hunting lease. Yesterday it got picked-up to go to the shop to get it ready for hunting season this fall. I haven't run it in several years.
