Nearly there now honest

Ok,



Lets be honest, I'm miles off....thats what doing up a house will do to you.



Anyway,



The interior is now nearly stripped

Having the brackets made to mount the seat and FIA ali brackets

Then its cage time! RS replica I think!

You may be miles away from the finish line, but you are so many miles closer than I am, as I have yet to start such a project. One day, though, I want a Turbo RS replica in my garage. <img src="/forum/images/smilies/968/smile.gif" class="smilie" alt="" /> Also, half the fun is in getting there. Enjoy your project, each step of the way. Do you have a target date for completion, or are you just letting it unfold as time permits?
As time permits really



Its mainly time and bloody glue!!!!!!!!! that has been the problem.



I should have sold mine and bought a race car like Eric did but they are like hens teeth here and very expensive when they come up.



It is great fun though!



I have an auto electrician to help me with the loom so it should be up and running again soon!



Graham
Yeah, it looks like you still have a bit to do! <img src="/forum/images/smilies/968/smile.gif" class="smilie" alt="" /> However, it will come together quickly if you keep working at it.



I'm glad I didn't have to deal with the glue and such. But, the downside of buying a used (and a little ratty) race car is that there are a million other things to replace. Including the roll cage in my case.



Good luck and keep us posted on the progress.
