Did you by any chance paint the underside of the car whilst it was on those axel jacks?? :laughing6:

Looking real nice. gre:

[RS2000CHRIS]

The complete shell was painted at the paint shop,but when i got it home on closer inspection the paint was a little thin on the underside in a few places.so I masked up the complete car at home & the painter came around to my house & resprayed the underside all over again with another couple of coats of 2k.There was so much paint on it was dripping off,but what a nice finnish.It shines on the bottom just like the top.

Looking good Chris. I hate to think how long you spent making up those brake pipes as it takes forever to get them on the car and straight


Chris.

chris, did you alter your top mounts that are in the pics, as ders said?
did you get the washers sorted?
looking great by the way.
cheers.

[RS2000CHRIS]

The tops mounts finally got sorted out.On top of the original spring cup I removed the welded on stengthening washer,then I spot welded on a slightly smaller diameter washer.Then put the whole lot together & this all allowed the top mounts to spin nice & freely.
The brake pipes I made from coper & then polished them up to shine.The old Ford brake pipe clips were rusty so I used Volvo plastic clips that fitted directly into the original hole & they look nice & neat.

Very Nice chris.

[RS2000CHRIS]

Had a busy day in the garage working on the RS today.I've put the rear axel all together now plus fitted new shoes,wheel cylinders,hand brake cable & made up & fitted the 2 rear brake pipes.
Does anybody know if the fuel pipe clips that fit into the chassis are still avalible? or does anybody have any some new or good used?
