Congratulations, fine looking 2102. As they are so rare even in Baltics, I have to say you found your self a good one. Usually they are in poor state, body and rust problems. I have to notice that this one has front seats from Lada 2107 in stead of 2101/2102 leather. Brown seats are not so hard to find, so if you decide to change them you will find them easy. Most of 2101 had brown interior.
What kind of Carb problem you have? Lada carbs are simple and easy to fix.

Bookmarked. Glad there's a thread about this, I was bombing the seller with texts when I noticed it on Gumtree.

Deduct a substantial amount of altitude, then replace alloy for steel, and all will be well! Oh yeah, maybe put the carb back on too ;D An excellent slab of Eastern Bloc loveliness. That pink Alfa looks cool, too... Yes, the pink bits are nice.... and so are the orange, magenta and tiny little hidden red bits too ;D

Slow progress on the old Lada just now. The good news is the carb can be refurb'd and I can get a brand new steering box for it too...............The bad news is that the parts have to come from Russia and won't be here until March. :-(
So if anyone has any general parts for a Lada 1200 engine they want to sell then drop me a PM, because sod having the car off the road for long periods for something silly.

I've got a good low mileage 1600 fiat twin cam engine and box in my lock up if you fancy going down that route. I was keeping it as a spare for my morris minor but could do with clearing some space and the good thing is I local to you, only down the road in paisley.

Is it all complete and ready to go on with carb and other ancilliaries etc? If so how much are you looking for it? Pm me if you don't want to post it publicly. Cheers

From memory everything is there for the twin cam. The engine was pulled out of a low mileage fiat 131 that had been parked up after failing its MOT for rot when it was about 4 or 5 years old. Then suddenly a couple of decades had passed and the car had dissolved but the engine had oil down the bores and turned freely with good compression so was removed and carefully stored for a kit car project. The kit car never happened and I knew the history of the engine so pestered to to buy it as a spare. I think the carb was missing when I got it but I have got spares in my parts hoard as I've used these engine in projects for the last 20 years plus. I'll get a look at it next time I'm at the workshop and make sure everything is there.
