Sport Shell's

tommyboy · 16-06-10, 01:09 AM

After speaking to a mate who set up his own welding and fabrication company a few year's ago. . we got talking about car's

. .and after i took him for a spin iin the scooby. . he had a look at my Wr ( poor bas***d) . . he showed a interest in helping me out with the car in a few month's when work calms down about. . . that's when he asked me about if there's many Sport quattro shell's about to start from. . and 2bh i ddnt have a clue...so i thought id ask?. . if there's a few unfinished project's kicking about ill let him know. ( not that pile of S**t with the temporary sunroof down in bournemouth )

If he's any good with welding, might as well start with a long shell and shorten it... There's a shed load of difference between a shortened long quattro and a short (sport) quattro though.

Yeah he is a good quality welder. . atm he's customising a new massey ferguson for a certain farmer's requirments.

yeah the windscreen angle etc. . . . id rather get a lwb shell and A2 it from a bare shell....similar to what ive got planned with myne.

Followed by wider roof, Upright B pillars, wider C pillars, different rear bench floorpan, different slam panel, different engine mounts, 4link bars to rear wishbones, etc. etc....
