W.I.P. Franny the feista

righty picked the car on thursday with thanks to my mate
the bumper had to come off in order to get it onto the trailer. i kinda like the front without the bumper


jobs to be done

I spent friday and started stripping the car out due to there being a funny smell and water gettin in from somewhere.
pic of everything that was stripped.

once the entire car was stripped and sound proofing removed cos it was soaking wet i found this
(passenger side)

(driver side)

these where on the wheel arches
interior fully stripped out

had to drill the fog lights out of the bumper but we didnt have a drill so grinded it out instead

Looks like a good project, thats a big list

What is it? xr2i?

nah 1.3lx for now unkown spec on it its been 60mm dropped on spax or gmax cant remember and has straight through exhuast no cat
the list got longer after i stripped it

Cool, looks like you got a lot of good bits with it then. Looks like the top pic of that rust it going to need welding, second you might get away with.

yea gona get the grinder out and have a looky,
yea wasnt too bad need a new rear axle though
might sell the suspension cos its too low 60mm drop is ona be killer on my speed bumps round my way

the puma rear axle is now sittin in the garage waiting to be fitted, still trying to find a welder so progress is slow can only fit the rear beam, and clean the interior ready for welding and waxoyling

i can weld...(ish) Only using an Arc tho, cos i dont own a MIG welder but do have an arc welder.

hmmm when can you come over then dave?

when i'm not working... when your not working and when it aint fooking raining! lol

Seriously tho, i wouldn;t trust my welding enough yet for serious repairs.. i;ll still learning... takes time to learn and working with different thicknesses etc...

yea, lol
my mate said he can have it all done in two weeks he takes it to his unit and does it all, but he has a month long waiting list.
