  • RS2000 JMG 963W Resto pics

    hope these are of interest, any comments welcome plus i hope it makes me get my finger out and get stuck into her

    80w RS2 Custom well know car from 80's, was fitted with 2.3 16v holbay and loads of mods, here is a pic kindly sent from paul ruddy some time ago from ccc circa 89.


    Here is when i bought her in Jan 2002 outside of my lockup



    Engine Bay



    Resto start, usual front end strip down, wings off etc to find all horror stories

    Looks a lot more solid than some of the cars that I've seen pics of.
    Are those the latest resto pics then?

    Will be good to see her restored to her former glory!

          Cheers lads, No have a lot more recent pics will get some more up.
          Brian Inners were sweet needed only wing rails, have a little problem with strut top plates tho not sure what to do as they have been openend up and drilled for mk1 rtm's.
          Holbay was sold last december for serious money, was only 1 of 8 and was homologated for post historic rallying so its probably singing its little heart out at 10,000 rpm in a mk1 escort, well i know it is.

                            Methinks remove top plate and using a pair of my top plates and some nifty repairing to inners will do the trick !
