So I've decided to take on another project.....this was delivered just before Christmas
A car I've always loved and previously tried to buy with no success, but this time was different.
It has been sitting unloved since about 2007 I think since it was broken for parts, shell has changed hands a few times and unfortunately stored outside for most of it judging by the good condition of the car from when it was broken, to shit of present day
Got it on the ramp and had a look at what we were up against, no big surprises over any other sierra I've seen
An example of the common rust issues, also the sills on both sides need replaced
Started to strip the suspension off that it came with as it was largely unknown and rusty, and the back end is from a 3dr.
My mate had this that he was breaking we decided to rob the running gear off of it before he got rid of the shell
Next door is a plant hire company, came in handy
Started stripping the car after we lifted it up
Finished
Shell off to its new home
Beam before stripping
Beam stripped and loaded and off the the powder coaters
That's it for now, car is off to the body shop on Thursday, probably won't have many updates for a while, but i'll try and update this when I can.
