I thought the rs500 shells had different beam mounting points on the rear surely you'd be able to till by them?

Aww so it's just the pickup points on the beam that are different and not the actual shell itself.

I know it's been painted but it's a very wishy washy shade of moonstone blue.
Odd it's got a tilt and slide sunroof,the motorsport and base model shells didn't unless whoever did it fitted a roof skin but if they were that capable they could have drilled the hole for the aerial.

Wahay!! I've lost my Virginity!!
I wonder if the shell has the correct straight towing eye or the factory stamped cutout for the abs setup? May phone the seller and ask for a pic or two of these areas. I'd say it's a base model shell. Also the front bumper has fog lamps rather than the 500 air ducts.

Seems good shell but...
Aerial in wrong place
No door locks
Front bumper can be seen but is it RS500? and no splitter attached
What kind of parcel shelf did the RS500 come? that one seems to have the plastic lid on
About the front towing eye just to guess will it be the correct RS500 type, I think not.

I've found that life I needed.. It's HERE!!
well good luck to the retard that gets stuck with it and pays anymore than Ł500 for it, to finish off the project it just needs crushing, job done.

Has anyone been to see this car then? Without it being given the once over by someone who knows them it seems a bit fair to rubbish it. One of the breakers said its a load of rubbish and missing its bumpers, but clearly u can see a front bumper so he probably said that so he can buy it himself.

I had no 337 a few years back now and searched for 4 years for the right car, if it was a genuine shell and all the bits were there it would be worth something but not what it is at the price it's at, somebody who doesn't know what they are getting is going to get stung in the arse.

I have seen first hand at least 30 RS500s with the later replacement shells, this will no doubt be number 31
Many of those will have been simply logbook RS500s when they acquired their new shells, and all have found willing buyers once they were rebuilt.
In a couple of years time this one will be exactly the same and being admired at shows no doubt and completely legal.
