wrc rep in progress
#31
Thanks guys its taken a lot longer than planned as we keep adding stuff to the list of things to do but it will be worth it when it's done as I can't find another one anywhere with a steel wrc kit fitted so should be quite rare,,and should go like it looks with the tubular subframes and all the other bits we have added

This look cool, love to see the end result.
Will it be a Rep as in complete with graphics again? The graphics for me are a love hate thing, they look so dated and fugly when blathered on, but your first post looked right (correct combo) so it should be right done again on the wide arch.
What about the dash and all the other cosmetics?
Keep up the great work

Cutting a pulling the metal isn't really a true wrc kit is it lol ,,, granted its good work and looks nice but this kit is hand made from sheet steel and is a exact copy of tommy mack's wrc car and all the original bodywork has been done away with like a true wrc car not pulled about to make look wider ,,,,this kit from wrcspares is 15k unfitted but we hand made all the panels

Wrc suspension has turned up (proper wrc stuff)

Wow...
What a thread, good luck with the build dude. I love projects like this and as others have said can't wait to see the finished article. Sure you'll get days where you get demotivated by the time it's taking but it'll all be worth it bud

Yes please do, the exhaust from memory were bought by the Abu Dhabi sponsors for his team, so they don't really owe him anything, but I would imagine he will want £ for them. They are too loud for public roads from memory

Thought I'd better make it easier for the drivers and co driver to have a chat so brought some nice helmets and intercoms ,,,, practice headset is for on the road as the intter com links to my iPhone so I can take calls and listen to tunes when on the road

Hey Dom!
I just looked through this thread for the first time, wow this looks better than I imagined! The shell is really taking shape, are you going to run it as a legal rally car with restrictors, sound limits etc or chuck a big power motor in? Is it at MB? I might have to pay them a visit, looks like they have some nice toys!
