So spent few days in the sun out in the yard doing more stripping down and investigating the extent of the rot!!
Removed ALL the sound deadening, I emphasise the "ALL" as anyone who has done this will know just how much of a pain it actually is to do the stuff wont melt off , if you heat it its worse but got it all off in the end even if was really irritating!!
The results from the above was more holes and more of a headache but this way there will no longer be a water trap and I know the car will be safe and solid as last thing want when on a track is a colander for a floor pan.
Removed the dash and bonnet and all wiring too just leaving the engine loom and few bits and bobs then back under cover waiting for the RS to get finished ....
So came the day that the RS drove out and mine was pushed in ..... things them got serious
So I really did get on with the stripping it is genuinely easier to put what is left on the car , taking into account when got it only things that weren't on it were the carpet , seats, door cards and few minor bits and bobs. So here goes:
*Nothing ....... Bare shell.
Here's a pic of removing the fuel tank, the rear subframe and prop shaft along with any wiring pipes and suspension remaining from initial strip.
Front subframe came out with all the suspension, engine, gear box and loom etc.
Back on the ground after job done ready to get secured on stands etc so can get worked on .
Going to add that my camera is bit iffy as the phone over heated and has damaged the hardware for the camera so might notice some purple tint to some of the pictures :-(
That will do for now .... more to follow
