Been meaning to put up a few pics of the repair work I did to my s2 after purchasing it a few years ago.
However on closer inspection i spent so much time doing it up i forgot to take a load of pictures of the progress! mainly because the more bodywork i removed, the more rot and rust i found. Didnt want to scrap it though so i got to work big style!

But, heres a few to give an idea of the state it was in!

After wanting a turbo for two years and finally getting to an age where i could insure one sensibly, i went and bought this for cheap as it had not moved for 8 years. (however the engine was sound and has lasted me two years...but, it is time for a fresh one which is in the process of being built now)

Day1.. very tense... and once it was on its side.. the damage report hit me like a kick in the nuts! i knew it would be a good few months of weekends before i got to drive my first rst!



the front end before

and after


this was the better of the two rear arches!


other arch finished


the sil



didnt get any of that side finished but the other side was nearly as bad, along with the chassis rails which needed to be rebuilt completely in some sections.


then when all was done


and prolly the most recent pic..


wish i had taken more of the restore as it was a hell of a job!


update, found some before and after of underside
