there is some welding on 1 of the sills

first jobs is to take it up in the air and pull the side skirts off , ill be also pulling the carpets out and check for any signs of rust , then sort this and undersea it all ensuring not to trap damp and rust inside

brakes will be second then ill start on the body work and full repaint

how ever I like having things ready , so if I plan on a engine change or upgrade ill start looking for options now . thanks for any tips

yes its suppose to be a genuine xr3i but unsure how to prove this ??
