Re: my new black rs turbo project..... update! lots of parts
ok lads finally a bit of an update, i finally got the ball rolling on the bodywork of the rs, i started stripping back the kit and lights etc etc for the respray and the bit of welding. she got a tip at some point on the back right quater so the wing and drivers side sill were replaced with genuine ford stamped panels so the drivers side is rust free bar the inner arch which i have ordered, the passenger side is original however so rusty but not as bad as i feared. the front is a horror story tho, somebody in the past butchered the 2 front wings and arches with a grinder to fit bigger wheels so there an absolute disgrace, i did get a genuine front right quarter with the car so only had to get a passenger side one. more bad news is when i was takeing out the windscreen there was a nice stone chip in the corner so unfortunatly it cracked right across the stone chip, and worst of all it was a heated screen but not to worry i have all replacement panels bought and should be here tomorrow, im also picking up another rs this weekend for parts so that should be all my parts gathered shes also booked into the bodyshop in 3 weeks to get the panels fitted and for a full body respray, then i can set about getting her back together and undersealing her, think thats all for now, just a few pics comments welcome as always
