ti crash repair

[jerseypug]

took a couple of days off work to move the car on as I'm booked in for a rally early March. I still have lots to do and i haven't enjoyed spraying the car in a small freezing cold garage,

the front bumper bar has been made to support and strengthen the fibreglass bumper

this was the ground that was still left in the airbox after the crash. the engine had to have a full strip down and rebuild.

Sh1tty luck, having to rebuild the engine just 'cos you've had a shunt!

had the head skimmed and a thinner head gasket while it was apart so some good came out of it

it has taken 5 months of evenings and weekends with what started off as a quick fix ended up fitting a body kit, respraying, sorting the wiring out, replacing the rear arms, rebuilding the engine, fitting plastic windows and fitting an electric heated screen.
