Not mine, but the white one (genuine RS2000) was a friends, and the blue one a club member's Mexico:

From a barn find (literally!):


To a full resto:




To this - after many hours of graft later (the shell was MINT ) :

How much is that plate worth ... JAW Z ... both stunning cars, if only we could find more like that, how many have been scrapped because the big ends went etc .. makes a grown man cry .. infact .. i really do when i think back to the ones i sent to the scrapper ... i would be a millionaire if i had stored them up. When i was 18 I scrapped one after smacking the rear 1/4 in .. took the engine and and box out and scrapped it .. mint bar the dent.

looking good mark mate I am going to paint it black, and a 1600cc OH engine, just bought the ATB too

I am going to keep the standard dash what do you think? and am buying some after market gauges for tempretures. bought a new front panel too to fit rectangular lamps, rs bumpers etc, was in thought of selling everything and buying a mk3, but i just cant let it go, maybe it was lack of motivation and seeing her in that sorry state? anyways cant wait to see it finished now!

I would keep the standard dash and add gauges due to the fact it is hard to find a good working 6 dial dash!...I have 3 six dial dashes and they all have a gauge which does not work,so will try and make one good dash from them when i get to that stage!
I would keep the round headlamps as they look so much better.

Don`t sell mate, they`re getting harder and more expensive to find.
