TA23 Body Q... Tue, 19 October 2004 04:36 Go to previous message
Err - I've got a few weight saving features that have unexpectedly (well actually I was expecting them) come with the TA23 shell that I purchased. What are ppls advice in this regard, the chassis rail looks farked on both the passenger and drivers side just near where they meet the rear-wheel arch.

Aside from this bit of structural rust though, the car isn't too bad (bits of bad rust near front and rear windscreens needs to be cut out etc). Should I rebuild these chassis rails or just look for a new shell? Other problem is that I'm guessing this car has been in some kind of accident as there is this wierd warpage pattern on the passenger side footwell. See the accompanying photos (don't pay attention to shoddy colour balance etc...it was night and lighting was limited Smile )

First the passenger side chassis rail rust

Secondly the drivers side (check out that farken huge hole)

And lastly the wierd warpage (or what seems to be warpage) of the passenger side footwell (not sure if the drivers side is the same, haven't had a look)
