A few already know of this from another forum but thought it may be of interest to members on this board.

 

Bought off ebay for small fee, Ive now taken delivery after it being at a mates workshop since money was exchanged.

 

Chassis leg is very much bent so that needs replacing first, engine to be replaced with a s16 & gti-6 box.

 

Bodywork is in poor condition not to mention the crash damage.

 

Body panels need to be ordered from Belguim (am considering a road trip on way back from Nurburgring in May)

 

Will try and keep updated for those interested

Next on the list is the chassis leg

[welshpug 1,621]

that's one hell of a set of sideburns!

 

how much damage is there to the shell?

[Peetypug 5]

please say the "M3" mirrors are coming off

 

they're very 1990's

[deejay391 0]

yeah the M3's will be replaced with standard ones hehe

 

The chassis leg is slightly more then bent Will need cutting out and welding in a new one, luckily the top mounts look undamaged, the suspension strut is suspect but until I pull it off I won't know if its ok, the whole car is quite rough, I will prob give it a full re-spray just to make it look pretty again
