Guest eddiemk3 Posted March 23, 2010 Share Posted March 23, 2010 Well im new here, my name is eddie,a few pics for you Well here are the pics after i collected the mk3 today. It does need some tidying up here and there but for the money i paid it was a bargain. The rear lights are going in favour of standard ones that came with the car. The s2 kit is coming off and replaced with s1 kit that also came with the car, and some orange front indicators brand new roof lots of spares in the boot and in the back s2 seats need to go, if you have some s1 seats please let me know and under the bonnet, 2ltr zetec, needs a big clean etc so all will be coming out so the bay etc can be painted. carbs or turbo?????? not bad for under 900 quid, Standard rear lights fitted, and all badges removed:thumb: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest eddiemk3 Posted March 31, 2010 Share Posted March 31, 2010 Here is a small update from the past few days...... I took the car to Mark @ Medway RS Centre as he owed me a few favours so he kindly let me use his facilities, plus this way i am working under supervision and there is less chance of me going 100mph and butchering the car:rolleyes: (A big thanks to mark for allowing me the use of his workshop, knowledge and patience) anyway, the plan was to replace the damaged and rusty from wing, so this came off after the car was semi-stripped..... and then after some poking around, and removing lots of filler, and even sylicone:mad: that was hiding under the paint i discovered this lot.... so then i took the front panel off..... so from an easy job of replacing a front wing, i now need to replace that, the front panel, both front sections of the inner wings, and some small repairs to the rear section of the inner wing.....:woohoo: then, just maybe it can go for paint.... but on a plus note, the a pillars are solid, as are the sills, floor pan, boot floor etc.... the s1 kit is no longer going to be fitted, so i may sell this to recoupe some money. well thats if for now, ill keep updating as and when more work is done.
