thomas cleeves Posted September 29, 2018 Author Share Posted September 29, 2018 Well I thought it was going to be mission impossible finding rear archs as no one makes them but after hunting hard I was very lucky to find some and only off a lad 20 minutes away from me could not believe it Quote Link to post Share on other sites
thomas cleeves Posted October 2, 2018 Author Share Posted October 2, 2018 Well tonight I picked up theses 6 rays 2 four spokes and 5 five spokes they need refurbing. But what are people thoughts do I go for four or five spokes on the front with the five on the back Quote Link to post Share on other sites

thomas cleeves Posted October 27, 2018 Author Share Posted October 27, 2018 Been off to do a little shopping now have engine box dc coil overs and some ep91 front brakes still so much to buy Quote Link to post Share on other sites
thomas cleeves Posted November 7, 2018 Author Share Posted November 7, 2018 When one turns into two well as I said before the plan was to have the arches and sills done next before I started the turbo build but after having lots of expensive quotes back this wasn't going to be cheap as the sills were fucked I came across this other shell and am not not lying it's mint so still the same plan turbo build but in this much better base so now have two to make one good one happy days Quote Link to post Share on other sites
