87 CS, Mk3 facelift (new picks)! vts-turbo!

[SunderZ]

Small bit of history.. i baught the 180 back in october with the plan to go to the nurburgring wich i did quite a few hicups on the way, but non the less really enjoyed driving the turbo'd vts estimated power was about 170-180 bhp.

Now just befor i went to the ring i had the car fully checked over and also a full service, this showed up some small problems to be sorted but also that under the imaculate paint work there was quite alot of rust.. enough to fail an MOT with and this was after i had the large patch on the rear delt with.

so as my other thread on weather to reshell it with my other vts shell that is what i will be doing with some added parts allong the way..

over the last few weeks i been buying up some parts ready for the reshell ill let the picks do the talking as i do like to type away..
