So what have u got now, a donor shell and all the parts off the old car or do you still have the old rally car?
Scrapped the old rally shell once stripped as it was a total mess, probably 4 different cars stitched together! At least front offside and a rear quarter stitched in to the original GSi shell. Got a mix of old rally car and donor car parts but as the rally car was Group N I need new or second hand performance parts to reach the spec I described. Alan at ProTec has been helpful and I've gone to him for a fair bit if stuff. Lots more pics to post when I can.
Thanks...really was hoping not avoid that but sounds like you think false economy
Were about are you located ?
sounds like you got a plan of attack there bit of recycling also
I'm in Northwich and yes there's a fair bit of stuff I could sell on to help fund what I want to do. I just need to pull a list together and clean a few bits up
