Hi Guys

the spec will be a genuine 360bhp yb, with baby atlas,group 4 tarmac suspension
ect, ect
this shell was mint to start with, every panel of the shell except the front wings are original

when he first bought this car i couldn't belive how mint it was.... it only coverd 30k
miles from brand new .

more pics to follow lads....

marco

 

for those that want more pics you will have to wait

as Lee makes progress with the car i will keep posting newer pics

i think the next thing that's been done to Lee's mk1 is the custom rad+intercooler

 

looking good, keep up the good work , every time i see one makes me want one, but i dont want to do the work as much as id like to, Marco have you any pictures of your car? is it an RS500 or just a RS?

 

Marco

when you see Lee,tell him that,that car will be the fucking bollocks mate,cant wait for it to be finished

 

Hi Mate

my car is a late 3dr cos not a 500 but has alot of Rs500 parts ....

i have few pics .......on the pics and videos section .........

cheers marco

 

Tiff

just come down one weekend you know where we are

Honstly the pics don't do any justice at all

Roy Nune who fitted the arches he said "i have seen such a clean mint original mk1 shell absolutly rust free "

Cheers marco

 

That looks the bizz.

Keep up the high standard right to the finish.

Brilliant

 

Very nice mate wait untill i show my mate the picks he will be pissed that he sold his buble arse mk1 (4 peenuts ) hope my S1 looks as nice When i get it back

 

Very Cool!

 

thanks for all your comments , next job is to get the rad and intercooler
made and fit the group4 tarmac suspsion , which iam picking up on friday
from autosports along with a 6 plate paddle . iam hopeing to have it finnished
by june , ready for the summer all being well.
i must say a big thanks to ish for posting the pics , and a big thanks to marco
for all your help and advice and for coming up with the idea of cossying my mk1
( although i now have 3 jobs , 4 loans and live on the streets , he says it will
be worth it !!!! ) i think hes right .

that paint work supurb which body shop was that and were are they based really hard to know who to use as paint finishes really break or make a motor and thats a real diamond

 

will get some more updated pics up as soon as Lee's mk1 comes back from having the custom interooler & rad made

 

Hi Peep

The car is nearly finished .... it has the baby atlas on it now .ZF plated diff..... all rose jointed group 4 billys are on AP brakes front and rear are on ... alloy tank is on , engine is built up ..t34.48/greens/ 4wd manifold no lag

9x15's allround everything is brand new every nut and bolt .......... if there s one person on here that i would help and it would be Lee........such a good friend to me the guy is spot on .... he has helped my with my car a few times now and i'm am very greatfull..........fair play to him

This is why i am helping him from my experiance from having mk1 and mk2 Escorts and cossie .......and to help him build a proper car ...with the proper bits ...

i have also got him a gatted big wing sump for his car which hold 6 litres of oil ....loads of other bits and pices....... he will be well happy with ....if he is not then i think i would feel really bad .... and wish i never got involed .. but i can't see that happing tho
