Looks greta in Frozen SHaun. Really good build. Gunna be so hard to keep clean though

Hows my old RS1800 getting on?

I sold the RS1800 in the same condition as I bought it from you mate, apart from I fitted one of the 3/4 windows to stop the rain getting in

It is now in Wales with Darrell, Dwayneology on here, who is going to restore it and get it back on the road

I didnt have the time to do it as I bought a Black FRST a few weeks after I picked up the RS1800 and now I've got a 2.0 Si as well to run about in while I have a few bits done to the FRST

Looking mint, nice work.

What colour stripe's are you putting in the bumpers?

Or do they weigh too much?

Black would look very

Can't wait to see it finished, as I'm sure you can't

getting bored now, wheres these pic

Update as promised

Yesterday my mate Darren and myself dropped the steering column down to a better angle,

After fitting my Sparco seat the angle of the wheel was an issue so this is what/how we altered the angle.

How it started out



The spot welds were drilled out and the 2 upper braces cut off



I then fitted my seat in place and we sorted the new wheel height.

Then we welded in 2 angle pieces to the upper part and a couple of box sections to the lower part



Unfortunately my camera battery went flat
But after a few coats of paint the wheel was put back on and its been lowered by at least 25mm,
My drivers seat will now be fitted as far back as possible,

which after checking again will be perfect for me. Pedal box next

Also today a visited my ole' buddy Luke and collected his old (my new) bronze tinted polycarb windows, cheers fella

Pictures will follow once fitted next Sunday.

So, Next job is to finally put the poverty spec loom in, then the dash then the front screen

i'm hoping to have 2 weeks off within the next month to push this on

[jayrs]

nice work with that mate
battery went flat, poor excuse, make it up next time

[FRSJON]

Thanks for all the comments guys, I'm working all weekend again this week so no progress as yet, but it will be soon

Cage is an OMP bolt in one fella which has been painted Frozen White, Read back through the thread (near the front) and you will see when I bought it and and how it was installed.
