Time for a little update

I have to say a big thankyou to rs220bhp, who very kindly said that I could take anything I wanted off his shell he is breaking for my car to sort the rusty arch and a-pillar, so I went down to his place (3 1/2 hour drive each way!) on saturday and set to with the angle grinder! The shell is completely rust free and mint, and I'm delighted with the parts I got to sort mine out

I also bought a genuine ford front wing off him while I was there for mine, which I'm also delighted with

Anyway, here are some pics of what I got:













Also the a pillar and a few other bits from under the car/wheelarch:



So I now have all the metal I need that you cannot buy as repair panels to completely sort my rst

Let me know what you think

haha only joking i was in oxford this weekend anyway

get cracking!

Whats wrong with it being rolled? No one will notice and you can fit wider wheels y0!

But really, are you going in for concours? If not it's not worth the effort.

good stuff dave - get cracking

does that mean T2 stays - standard hoses, airbox, exhaust etc?

Thinking of modified concours, so will have plenty of standard stuff, but suspension, exhaust and other bits and pieces will be aftermarket, and the underside will be red (which it wouldnt have been from the factory)

But yea, going to leave the engine at standard power. Got another plan for a powerful motor

I wonder if I could replace the whole arch without taking the rear quarter off hmmmmm.
