well just to stop me from getting bored, now that the monte done and the sierra, im going to crack on with the S1, i bought it in january this year as a rolling shell, car is ex FF cover car from about 3 years ago,

came with 17s, leather, GRS, header tank etc etc

so, upon deciding what to do to it i got word my old rs1600i was up for grabs, so with a journey to southampton i bought the old girl back

upon getting it home, i removed the management, engine etc etc and sold the car on as a rolling shell, bought by a friend,

so now i have my old 300BHP engine sat here ready to fit.... but as i have never done one and want to see 'how it will go' i am going to use a 2.0 bottem end i have, steel rods and FRS pistons, that was in my mates old RST but has now been returned to standard to sell.

so here it is now as we speak



plan is to strip interior out etc and start to seam weld it, then i will get the full car painted and fit the engine, MOT and tax and on the road, so nothing to drastic to do, but will be cracking on now
