Slammed 6507

apart from the passenger side door/roof.... the lower door is mint, but the roof has been hammered in by the bodyshop so the filler would stick,
Ideally i could do with finding a door with the lower half wrecked, so i can cut the upper skin off it and replace mine. anyone know of any wrecked doors about?

Does it matter which door? This guy will (I assume) have a wrecked driver's door: viewtopic.php?f=58&t=3866


and I think it is Stuart Rees that has this car still(?) Although I think he was repairing the door:

Amazing work Rob!! How long have you had the car for? How does she run?

[RobScott]

yeah the the top of the doors are handed too, they have slightly differnt angles on them, so it needs to be a passenger door

I've had the car a couple of weeks?

My sister got me a delorean t shirt a few years ago thats said 'great scott' on it.... she didnt realise the car on it was a delorean, ha ha.



More fibreglass grinding and fillering today....

Dusty....







Looks like its had a slight bump, and the fibreglass has been cracked slightly, then repaired, and to cover the repair they sprayed on trunk liner.


I also took the front bumper off, and found some hidden nastys ............ a spider nest, and a likkle wasp nest. :S

[RobScott]

previously i have found this in the left hand pontoon, where the charcoal cannister is :S

[RobScott]

dodgey spider nest in the indicator bulb hole

[jerzybondov]

Jeez! How long had the car been sitting?!

[RobScott]

since the 90's,, lol,

[mec]

thats a hell of a job, how did you get it to sit so low ?

[RobScott]

for now, Ive cut the springs to set the height, but its either going on ajustable coilovers, or i'll most likely make up some springs and shocks for it

There is a guy on the retrorides forum, thats put air bags on an Esprit, looks freakin awesome!
