RS2000 4x4 complete minus recaros, front bumper and headlights

 

Then after putting the engine bay back together I got it started

The shell is the most rotten I've ever seen, arches are gone, rear chassis legs, front chassis legs, inner arches, floor come away from inner sill etc etc

 

So, after getting an engine crane for Christmas:

Back end is now off it and ill take out loom and fuel tank and rest will go in bin, plan for the running gear? Sierra (engine only) a fiesta 4x4 or if a 3dr escort comes up that isn't a rotter (aye right) then one of them.

 

For now ill keep to my dc2 integra!

 

Cheers

well I know the rs2000 rear disc beam standard fixed one fits fiestas so possibly the the chances of a 4x4 is possible! but maybe some modifications require to the front subframe maybe required won't it??

 

you can bolt and i4 into a mk3 fiesta with very little hassle

I think fiesta would be a good project but like Slee said mk3 fiesta could be just as crusty. This cost me under £200 so I'm not going to loose on it. There is a RS1800 shell for sale near for £150 so we shall see.

 

Plenty time tho I'd like to get everything cleaned up and painted so that'll keep me busy :) if anyone stumbles across a fiesta rs2000 4x4 thread link me up!

There are plenty of decent mk3 fiestas out there. U guys arent looking very hard......and avoid the rs1800. Good ar but the bodykit traps water. It will be rusty as Fcuk
