Well, after a long wait for a slot in the bodyshop things are finally moving along now. Went to see how the old girl is getting on today and I am very pleased with the results so far. The shell should be ready for collection mid next week and then the fun part of putting it back together.

 

Enjoy the pictures.

 

Niiiice. Wish I could have had a look at the workmanship gone into that when we popped up the other week.

Gaz, you were in the area ?

That,s looking the mutts bud , a guy across the road from me has a black mk2 RS2000 with an original Ford xpack fitted :drool:, supposed to have been a barn find in Ireland ! he says he,s gonna restore it but i,ve seen the work him and his brother do on their cars and believe me he,ll fooking ruin it , if it was for sale and if i could afford it i,d have it off him :yes:

Yes buddy I popped up one evening with a friend to ppick up his manual conversion, sorry Joel, didn't realise you were near there :-(

Haven’t posted for a while as ive been busy with other projects but he are some pictures of the RS going back together.
