Post subaru legacy turbo 92

Hi Guys

For anyone that maybe interested , I bought a 92 legacy a few years ago now and for some stupid reason i sold the old girl and fet like my whole world came crashing down around me . But as lady luck would have it i managed to buy her back . she needed some serious TLC , so with a couple of buddies and our newly rented workshop the fun and games started .

First idea was to get the gear box out as it was shot , then go through it sorting out a few wee bits here and there , Not that that was ever going to happen , gear box out followed by the engine , bonnet,wings,doors,interior "what was left of it" as i had fitted a cage the first time round,boot,sun roof , You get the idea , the plan went straight out the workshop front door and didnt come back so im now left with a rolling chassis , stroll on the weekend cant wait . next on the hit list is get her outside and fire up the steam cleaner/pressure washer .

Check back after the weekend for updates

Got a little bit done this afternoon mainly welding on the cage. It already had a 6 point weld in cage but we thought some additional bracing wouldnt go amiss.
