I wish I had your enthusiasm also, saying that maybe if I had a drive or a garage id be more willing to bother making my car better lol.

good work as always, look forward to seeing the strip down.

Looking good there Dave :thumbsup:

Having recently replaced the sump on my ST170 I can understand why most would give it to a garage to do

Another update

Got some more work done on the RS on Saturday

Got the new slam panel fitted, very pleased with it, really finishes off the engine bay

Then removed the front brakes and shockers ready for replacement

Next up is to fit new front brakes, new front shockers (after painting the ABS bracket and springs), and new ARB drop links too, then its time to strip the back of the car down to restore

Pics:

New front panel:

Shockers and brakes removed:

All comments welcome :thumbsup:

Superb. Painting by yourself? Good old hammerite?

I respect your work ethic and ways of doing things. You always seem to have it planned out really well. I know the RST isn't finished, however with the si you nailed it, the fiesta, nailed it, the RST - basically nailed it. And with this, you need a cossie! I'd love to see you work on one.
