I have seen lambo doors on silly cars before now but that is the first time I have seen someone do it to the whole bodyshell! it must have had some serious rust problems to open up like that

An escort cosworth was a cut down sierra floor pan under an escort body, pretty much what you are doing, keep it all square and with your welding skills it should be great.

Well took a front hub of yesterday, then took a piece of 1.6mm plate, and marked center, then a 112mm dia circle, and a 65mm dia circle, marked a center line for wheel stud 1, then mark stud 2 at 72º, then used the dividers to mark 3 4 and 5. Chain drilled then filed out the 65mm dia circle and filed to the line, welded in the bmw bolt holes and milled flat, put my plate on and 3.3mm pilot drilled the holes, then drilled out 11.3mm holes ready for when the studs arrive of egay.

So basicly should look exactly the same as it did when it was last on the road on its rs alloys

i was working on a mk4/5 cortina & our cat went missing once i found him in the boot & the other time curled up in my tool cabinet, after that he took to sleeping on my brothers shiny gt6

One of mine went missing.....3 days went by, then one night I caught him out of the corner of my eye, he had locked himself in the bedroom upstairs in the decker.

Another decided to take a trip to liverpool in the back of the posties van......luckily the posty recognised it as mine
