  • rpx's tidy up

    Having now got the rs2 into my own garage i have had a good look over it and have decided to clean and tidy as much as possible but without it losing its originality, the car has been painted in it life but under bonnet and in boot is original, i decided to leave as much ziebart on it as i can as.
    The only things that i will be changing is num plates, wheels, the under bonnet wiring needs a bit of attention and so also the carbs need setting up.
    Heres a few pics as is and will keep adding as i start to clean things up - have already started under the bonnet and am very pleased with results (no pics of this yet)
    It would appear that the car hasnt been cleaned inside for years even though the previous owner had it for a year since being stored in 84.
    The thing i like about is is its was a non custom so no wood etc and even the rear parcel shelf hasnt been removed and still has the plastic buttons on the two screws.

              the middle one is the headlight one that has been moved down and the other two and proper ford cibie light switches, would have gone in the console if it had one - though i have one lined up
