RSR replica project update 4
 

Well it is that time of the week again, and yet another update.

Front bumper, fenders and bonnet are on just to get everything lined up before it is stripped and painted. Indicator lenses have been fitted and seem to fit perfectly.

Same has been done with the rear section, taillights and prestige panel fitted just to make sure all looks good before final body work preparation is done.

First bit of color has now been applied and although it may not look like it in the bad light the end result with be a fantastic Continental Orange.

Close up of the interior, we decided to remove a piece of the rear parcel shelf, or just below it for easy access to the engine. This will be re fitted and kept in place with speed clips making it easy to remove.

Yawwwnnnnnnnnn. Now I'm getting bored-enough already.:) :) :)

Just kidding! Nice progress and keep up the good work.

it seems that RSR are like mushrooms after the rain right now, they are everywhere!
Fantastic job, keep us posted!

Thank you for all your kind comments guys.

I am going full Jagermeifter on this one with all the race graphics and everything.

Should look fantastic.

Here is SA there are very few RSR replicas so it will be an unusual car.

Thanks to all once again, more updates next week.

Yes the 74 RSR wide body still has great appeal. I say we turn this thread into the "show me your RSR wide body". Here's another one ala Kremer style.

Cheers,
David
