Brought this classic the other day from a friend that doesn't have time to finish it , new paint inside and outside , new cage full welded in and though to the turrets , seam welding,, lots of extra prep gone into this shell before it was painted

Not sure what spec it's going to be at the mo but I will update this thread as I get stuff done and buy parts for it , more just to show what I'm starting with

Nice basis to start with, most of the hard/time consuming work has already been done

Front subframe back from the powder coaters ,, newage front end going on , front arms are off being mirror polished

96sti

+1 sell it to me

domino46

Anything can be brought for the right price but I paid quite a bit for it as i know the chap building it done lots to the shell before painting and it came with quite a few nice parts already attached and with the new cage and being painted inside and outside including the engine bay its a lot of work that's already gone into it so it wasn't a cheap buy , but like I said anything is for sale really

Couple of the carbon covers turned up so stuck them onto the car and I think they look good and weren't very expensive really

Does look nice though. Great shell. Will certainly watch this thread. Scoobynet bugs permitting.

domino46

Yeah another one lol , must admit I like building them as much as driving them these days ,, I'm also considering doing some hill climb stuff in this before I sell it , once sold I'll start all over again with another one but another Newage next time I think

domino46

thought id do a bit of a spec list ,, prob missed a few things off and as its a ongoing project some parts will prob be swapped out long before it sees the light of day but iv used a few parts just to mock things up and still have loads to do so its not a finished spec , but are they ever finished lol
