Smile Before, during and,.....

Hi all, and happy new year!

Have been looking at this site for a couple of years now and thought it time I registered,... (lazy I know!) I'm in the process of creating a loose RS clone.

It's going to be a car for me just how I want it. Not a garage queen or a show car, just a USEABLE fun car.

It all started towards the end of 2005 with a car on ebay,... the advert said a 74S,... it turned out to be 'mostly' a 79 SC! here's the starting pic:






After about 18 months,... (read here - LOADS OF RUST - rotten front wings (fenders?), Sills (rockers?), kidney bowls, battery shelf, front suspension mounts etc,...)




Anyway, wish me luck with the continuing voyage,...

Gavin.

PS If you're struggling with your rebuild - I'm an IT guy, so if I can get this far with no welding training/experience you can too!
