not much of an update but I now own a RB30

Should I, shouldn't I???

[samcash88]

I wouldn't if it was me mate, I think the route you've decided on is by far the best for what you want the car to be!

Still interesting to imagine it though...

[ex-ctr]

do not bead blast or shot blast it as it can kill your pannels as it generates heat, ask BREN about what it did to some of his pannels, soda blasting though more expensive is so much better

Yeah have heard about soda blasting.

I may do it myself, if that's the case I'll buy a load of baking soda

[keggy]

frost sell a soda blasting kit

Update,

Just had the windscreen and rear window removed

Off to Blasters this week or early next week to be cleaned

Then the action begins

[MEL]

[Jonny_T]

Excellent project, can't wait to see how this goes.

All the best with it Dan

[DREAD13]

[Dan@DB-Power]

I will definitively be finishing this one

[akiragost]

yea how's it going dan? i'm expecting great things from this!

[Dan@DB-Power]

Well it's back outside ready for collection





Removed the engine:-


I also took that horrid bootlid/spoiler off

[channie]

Is that after sand blasting??? What did they sand blast

Fork lift truck to move the engine... me and crouchy kept it old school like the car and used bits of wood

[MEL]

Did the blasters actually do anything

Thank god you've got rid of that spoiler

Not thinking about keeping the original engine and tuning that?
