well got around to putting pics on the computer been busy working at other cars this week but the sealer is dry very happy with it can move on from the underside as it will get painted the same time as the shell.Main things next week to do order the wrc spoiler and bumper and send my wings away to get rolled i hope aswell so i can get the shell finished up.new bootlid came from ford germany as i want to keep the original bootlid from the car.

Small update new doors and bootlid and wings fitted.Doors proved to be a nightmare as the originals where spot on hooked on the new ones and both where over lapping the quarter panel and sitting down on the sill to say i was annoyed was a understatement so headed off in the van to pick up the other new doors of my rs2k and these fitted spot on so looked like someone at ford didn't weld the hinges in the right place so had to cut these off the new doors and reweld them to where they should be got finished up around 2am just have to finish making the wing to bolt on be4 they head off the get turned into wrc spec.

Awesome idea going for the "Stain" look - come to think of it, i'm surprised no one else has thought to do it before now.

Will look forward to seeing it painted.

Finishing off the sealing to the arch's and wings are converted to bolt on.jig'd out the damage to the driverside front panel it was down about half an inch so all measured up and gaps spot on just have to weld in the new panel and hope to get delivery of my wrc stuff before the end of the month.The hunts on for a 4x4 sierra cosworth for the donor parts to run this car so found a few here in ireland for sale to look into.
