Me doing them
Bought a mk1 xr2 many moons ago,,an "original" early 90's cut/shut...A propper one too lol..
Had cut the rear chassis legs..put a splice in em and slid em over what was left of the rotten bits,then fibreglassed them together. The rest was held together with just gob and paper,,horrific tack welds that were skimmed over...no drivers footwell,,or inner sill, A pillar made of gob from pins down and the rest was just an absolute Horror the more i dug the more i felt sick..Although it Had some beautiful original parts on it that had strangely remained perfect.
It was subsequently stripped an Crushed in 4hrs, after spending a day going through all its charms first though.
My bro's 5 with upside down HG was a cracker too.
Have simply seen to many to list..and tbh i love finding them, like a challenge, and to see just how much effort people go to when bodging a simple job, but also makes me appreciate what little i do know..and one things for sure i can do better than that..They just makes me grin at the workmanship..a shit job should always be done propper imop.
My absolute worst find was an old MAN tractor unit with literally no pads in the ns side front caliper, that REALLY boiled my piss, total CUNTS for risking that
