Guest laurence Posted February 9, 2010 Share Posted February 9, 2010 well where do I start my son bought it for 100 quid about 5 years ago and left it parked up the back of my house it is a realy good shell with no issues like battery tray or fuse box areas,he just wasnt interested so there it stood for two and a half years eventually it annoyed me that much that I started working on it,I have my own small garage buisness and ive been in this trade for 20 years so tools and equipment werent the issue so I started by removing the wings and front pannel and whilst they were off re sealed the inner wings etc put new ones on then I got a new rs turbo bonnet got loads of parts off them had them years ago and i dont throw anything out, then i went underneath it was a mess so i pulled it all apart and renewed all I could, you mention it and its probably new, pipes ,tank ,bearings ,hubs ,etc and two new chassis legs one had a small hole in I did all this before I painted it as you can see it was in a bit of a state laurence I will post some more pics Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
