Hi to everyone this is some pictures of 1986 turbo s12, I've had it for about a year now and I've nearly finished the work I wanted to do on it before I can use it, cant wait. The car was already stripped and the seats fitted when I brought it, also the diff has been welded up. The work that I have done is remove the cable handbrake and fit a hydraulic handbrake, I've done some repair to the sills and also just started to touch up the drivers side rear arch. I'm sure more work will be done on it, but after I've used it a few times first.

doesnt look like the rust penetrated too far on the arch...shouldnt be too bad to clean up

word.

grind down that rust and just primer and paint and it should be good as new.
looks like youre off to a great start nonetheless!

Thanks, yeah the rust wasn't that bad on the arch, I've put some rust killer on it so stop is from getting any worse.
