Yes we got everything we could of the car :D

The new shell had a few dents in the rear quarter panels which we thought we could get repaired down the track but once we had completely stripped the rust free shell we discovered a large bulge in the floor pan just under the back seat :( ..it now looks like we will be sending this shell to the wreckers too and starting over with the new white 85 GSR we grabbed today...I'm still to come across a Cordia that hasn't been in an accident :shock:

No problem on the fibreglass repairs Grant........can have that kit looking like new!

Only problem is you'll have to wait until next summer for paint. :)

Andrew i will take you up on your offer...I'll have to do test fit to see what the red kit will look like as I can't find any pic's to compare

Koray I've been told its a S13 vertex kit.

Not quite sure what to do with the rear..may look at getting a Vertex S13 rear bar and see what it would look like or just go with this look..
