E30 number 2 delivered.... lets see if as solid as was told

Hi all

Been going through photos taken of progress made to get this blog up to date after tonight we should be back to the present with any luck!!

Looks like nothing has happened to the car but have to remember been working full time and have stripped 2 cars down fully one to sell parts off etc and the other to the stage where it is now as was essentially a full car.

So not too much slacking ;-)

So you saw in last update hopefully the E30 on back of a transit (that had bought blind and in faith essentially) well it got dropped off like that stuck under a cover and left there for a short while outside mates garage until came up with a plan and space was made. Mate was rebuilding his Escort RS and deal was mine in when his out.

It went from this:

 

 

To this:

 

 



At this point my phone broke so lost loads of pics that stupidly hadn't backed up !!! FAIL

Have to use your imagination at this point but took all the parts out the car was two of everything, windows, doors boot lids etc!!

Then started doing some stripping to see what shape it was in....

The following were shot:

* Front wings
* Corner part of foot wells
* Battery tray in boot and part of rear valence that is bonded/welded to it to it
* Front Valence
* Front end where the oil cooler is fitted
* Rear bench

Not too fussed about half of these as either got replacements new or off old red one same as below really....

Things that were a bit suspect are:

* Bonnet
* Lower part of one of the rear arches including inner but for some reason other side is fine!!
* Some of floor pan under the sound deadening
* Roof


Little update there going to do them in several posts so makes lighter reading !!!
