yea, i will do mate. this one is quite early stage pic of outside..
then, i put headlights in etc. glass went in aswell just before. really annoying coz i got all brand new rubber seals and weatherstrips which are genuine ford and where they put like a chalk substance on it b4 they package them , my front screen rubber has this gluey crap all over it so looks old. just doesnt wana come off very well at all. all the underneath and wheel arches were striped and re-undersealed but its a shame the bodyshop didnt then paint it red, so that might be summit for me to have done this winter. parts underneath have been powder coated or sprayed hammerite red, but i feel i wana do more also at a slightly later stage. petrol tank was sprayed red by bodyshop. gearbox cradle was done by hand and already has chipped off a bit to reveal the colour it once was underneath so maybe a job to have done v soon is to have it powdercoated like the rear suspension legs have been. its no where near as mint as cars that have a nut and bolt rebuild but it is ultra clean and excellent and will only improve over the next few months.

cheers mate, i should get spoiler bk next friday, just need to find some genuine new spoiler bolts from somewhere. they are 2 sizes and ford can only get one size now 
gotta get all the brakes put on, then i can bung me rs7s on. think it wont see hardly any road this yr tho coz by time its all done i reckon bad weather will start to be upon us, so it may well stay off road in garage and i can then improve on more bits etc

nah, will be keepin this for a little while yet for sure. ive got plans of how ive always wanted my perfect rs turbo. ive always wanted a red 90spec turbo with a chrome rear cage and half leather lol. then as ive been lookin at other projects u just get more and more ideas of how your perfect car would be. i love twins interior on his where every bit of plastic has been flocked, makes it so more inviting to look at etc.
