If anyone is able to help id greatly appreciate it. Id even travel locally ish to help with removal of panels.

Accident damaged or cheap bare shell considerd if these area's are in good condition.

If no luck ill look into having to fabricate the following part's

If you are intent on saving this car my advice would be to strip it to an absolute bare shell. Only costs your time. Box everything up and label everything.

Send the bare shell for sand blasting inside and out everywhere, I send my shells to a local company that charge £350 - £400 it comes back spotlessly clean and painted in etch primer.

When it comes back repair all of the holes and rotten sections. The blasting will highlight any parts that need repair that may not have been seen before and would creep up and bite you in the a$$.

If you intend to use it for Motorsport this is the time to also stitch weld every seam.

Re seam seal all of the underside. Treat it to lashings of POR15 or other underbody protective paint.

Have all of your running gear blasted and coated, or blasted and painted with POR15. Blast and coat a full set of running gear is approx £250

Decide if you want to make coil overs or just to refurb and refresh standard shocks and springs

Re fit the running gear and then at least you have a rolling prepared shell for what ever route you finally decide to go.

Don't forget if you are going down the A2 body route some of the steelwork highlighted will be cut away to fit the wings

Hey mate

it is a absolute bare shell at the moment (bar pedal box). Everything that i need for the 20 valve conversion is all stored away. The pics up there I've used for reference before it was stripped down.

There's a few plans in motion already (part paid for and awaiting pick up)

AAN engine and 6 speed box. Full Running gear to match
Already got the s2 Hubs and front subframe

Pick up a bare shell of Acidburn that can be used for replacement panels along with a few other parts

Only thing holding me up is awaiting room to fit the car again. That should change in a week or 2

Thanks for the advice mate. Ill look into were local will do the shot-blasting and etch primer for me.

3 cars.And i cant even put one of them in some were dry at the moment.Want to know why. . .

F*****N donkey's ma mum rescued have taken up residence!!

Lol, use your head then, buy a car transport trailer and adapt the front end to accept horse driving gear.

Stick the donkeys on the front and get some use out of them :)

tommyboy 07-01-12 01:12 AM

Lol probable go faster than any of the 3 cars lol

Will hopefully keep you's updated with progress.

Spent last 2 hours looking into Van hire,shotblasting,and sending out pm's to people that if i pay them in tim could pick up part's

the engine and box,6 speed linkage and wiring loom,
rear diff,struts,shafts,prop wishbones
3/4 of a coupe shell
2 front A2 Wings going cheap on ebay locally
4 and 2 pot calipers for me impreza

That would be a worthwhile trip going as far south as Acidburn's
