Hello everybody, I have just joined and this is my first question. I purchased an s1 a few years ago with intentions of a nut and bolt resto. I have eventually got round to stripping it bare but a few things just arn't right. Before I bury my hat in this I need to make sure I have the correct shell preferably the original would be nice. I know these quite well I think but as I have stripped the car I have notices it has had the roof skin changed at some point, didn't bother me to much as a good job, inner wing have been changed as well?? Me thinks a white pre 84 shell converted, it has rear roll bar long roof rails?. Does anybody know of any other tell tail areas, bulkhead etc something hard to change. it has a floor number but can't make out any letters even after paint stripperingthe paint off.Any guidance would be much appreciated. It Is a b reg custom by the way. The car is on the hpi register and may have had more hits than the Beatles but was not a real Rs without a bit of history. LOL!
Cheers
