as to answer what colour the car is going to be well charlie is painting the car diamond white inside and out on the floor then i am taking it back to my barn to decide what next but i am swapping it for another mk1 to be restored as i am not sure what to do with the RS1600 big wing shell as they dont come up very oftain now but i have always wanted a ex works car.I also own a pre production RS2000 that was in the 1974 RAC rally its LHD and was number 187 but DNF,the reg is XWC182L driver H druce nav P taylor and JOHN WILLMENT entered the car,Sebring red. IF anyone knows anymore please tell.

Hi been a while since i was on here , holiday with kids etc

Made some good progress of late , the long awaited ex pressed inner wing came recently and have to say quality and fit were spot on , please see pics

Last pics were of n/s door post repairs, o/s has been completed but it was a tough job as inner post was corroded very bad. Managed to repair same but had to put some hours into it. see pics.

On a negative note johnsons where spence and i work have anounced last night the second wave of redundancy's are on there way. So i might be doing a bit more restoration work soon if yous know what i mean.

Anyone know much about setting a website up ??? Any help would be apprecated please pm me and i will get in touch

Long live the grinder's
