new here and starting a restoration on a mk1 xr2 will keep pics coming.



in a standard form alot of bodywork to do.

big ugly patch behind drivers wing.
even worse after patch removed,held together with silicon and underseal.

started to repair floor while waiting for repair panel for door post to arrive.

floor repaired just needs ground down and zinc primered.

starting to repair area around door post and inner wing.

most of the drivers side finished waiting to get the spot welder fixed to finish sills and wheel arches in the mean time started cutting the rust out the passenger side.



having the spit makes an easier job.


the floor in the drivers side finished.

inner wing cut out waiting for repair panel welding in.


flinch panel and door post removed. got the door post repair panel. will have to start from scratch with the flinch panel as so far I have found this unobtainable (any one got one please)

Good look with the restoration, I'll have a look about see if I've got any bits left to help you out, defo got a mint parcel shelf though,

Here's a few of my old one









Cheers

andrewdickinson

that's a very nice example my first one was sunburst red was thinking of going red with this one depending on how good the repairs turn out around the rear arches as black would show more. can you pm me with details of rear shelf thanks.
