Default Project 3i

*Thread copied over from a diff forum*

I've been after a project for a while now, was going to go down the corsa b route but ended up selling it to a lad off here when i bought my C (finance), worst decision ever

Recently flogged the C off so i've finally got some disposable income again

I've been looking around for a good base car to start, had a look at some Golf's, but for the price i was looking at they had had holes in doors and generally a bit to sCeNe.

I settled on this XR3i after looking at a few and got a scouser in a hoody to steal it for me





My Plans : Strip interior, replace the seats/rear bench if neeeded.

Sort out the leaking glove box

Replace part of the bulk head and battery tray.
Sills need a closer look at along with the o/s rear arch
Also looking at replacing the front floor pans
Rip out and replace the whole braking system along with calipers, disks and pads.
Replace fuel lines
Engine needs somework as the co2 sensor has been played with, the thermo switch? may be playing up also, prob replace the injectors, then hopefully it will be running smooth

Body wise : Looking at sticking some 90' spec kit on, not going for the RST replica, well as it's not one
