Pick this up last weekend and starting on sorting the shell asap.New slam panel ordered to sort out the damaged one.Sealers to be removed from underside and engine bay and then to be shot blasted.

Looks good !

 

Cool project....your not hanging about with it

 

cool, what spec etc yougoing for?

 

Cool place to work on it good luck with the car

 

Will be good to see it back on the road, just over a year since it was stripped.

 

Thanks guy's as for spec not too sure at the min still looking into to what to do on this end main concern at the min is to get the shell done and resprayed.But any info on the engine spec would be great as i want to be fit to drive this on the road but have good power to but don't want to loose to much of comfort side of things.

 

Brilliant mate

 

Nice

 

Top project.Wasnt this car in fast ford or performance ford.

 

very nice project mate

 

Thanks guys.Glenny boy i think it was in both but i no its was in fast ford more than once have the mags that featured it.

 

nice.....................

 

Nice collection of spare panels on the wall

 

It was on the cover of Performance Ford July 2002 and in Fast Ford Feb 2001 and Nov 2008

 

Thanks neil a.I hope to get back to something like it wasin the 2008 feature top job you did.

 

rwd it while you have the chance cossiedevil

 

Good to hear
My advice would be dont go chasing power, and use a tuner that is known for turning out tried and tested engines.

 

Thanks for the heads up.

 

Started to take the sill's down to bare metal as when lo@der had this he noticed a rust patch on the nearside sill.And as i have two new sill decided to see if it was that bad to fit these but to my surprise i can't belive how solid this shell is i did read on post be4 i got it that it was very clean.Im going to weld in a peice of a sill but only where the hole is as shown in pic as it solid the rest ot the way.

 

Great start to what looks like a nice project, is it staying white ??

 

is it me or is that just a awesome workspace to build a car ??


take it its not used as a daily paint booth ?

beef

 

Not sure on the rear lights, but what a great place to strip back and build up a project.

Also, nice pictures and nice progress so far.


Cheers,
Grant

 

Excellent stuff cossiedevil, looks alot better already from when Jay had it up for sale. If i where you id put it back to standard as it will always fetch good money when and if you go to sell it. Have you running gear for the thing? good luck with it. Best color by the way with orange front indicators all the way

 

if it turns out half as good as when neilA had it its going to be a good project

 

never new jay sold it?
its in good hands now, are you a painter mate?

 

best of luck with the rebuild, very good base to start with

 

THANKS.no this is just for my own use on project i be at

 

Yes mate about 12 years at it.

 

Well dec no engine or running gear sorted just yet but my mate in england is working on this.More concered on getting the shell all done and sprayed so i can move to my other shed to start rebuild.As i need to finish the rs2k.And yes it is staying white lads.

 

nice car this when steve hinks owned it and neila

 

Agree with you on the light ordered these and came yesterday much better lens.

 

what type guns do you use mate? reason for asking cause i need anew one,

Keep up the good work.
