Sorry mate that emoji is a yeah, don’t tell anyone 😁
Sorry mistook it for a confused, hand touching chin emoji. Nice buy btw. I went to see it when it was up for auction last year. What are your plans for it? Is it rot free?

Bodywork, interior, engine bay are like a 2 year old car apart from the smallest bit of bubbling at the bottom of an arch. Bit of surface rust on a few bits underneath, bottom arm, driveshaft, shocks that I’ll be replacing over time.

Was the seller ok with the price he sold it at?

Finally back in a ph1 after a long hiatus which will a company my 96 spec DC2 which is currently in the process of having a full resto.
Pictures show the car when it was purchased and its current state, just awaiting a free slot to have new sills welded in and the rear quarters blown over.
At present i have fitted a one of my spare Recaro pole position's on a Jon foz subframe with sliders, Cup spoiler and a set of f1's which i had saved for when i returned to the clio club.
Awaiting delivery of my Comptech 4 pots.

On the look out for the following parts;

PMS Shifter
PMS top mounts and brace
LSD or LSD Box
Ph1 Steering wheel boss and sabelt racing steering wheel

Will enjoy the car this summer whilst finishing the Integra and take it off the winter to carry out a under body resto.

Never seen one go here and i have broken over 15 ph1s in my time.

Dressed it back and treated the rust, ready for my welder to inspect and decide how to proceed.

Nice to see another one saved. I bet of the 15 or so you broke in the past many were in better condition in terms of rust?

There was actually one that was worse than this which had a roof tile fall on its roof when it was 3 months old and was repaired not written off but the work was shocking.
However, this PH1 is a keeper for me
Currently stock piling parts whilst i await delivery of my LSD :D

Offering up some new wheels, Renault 19 Speedlines. I know they’re a bit marmite, but I like them and think they suit the early ph1. Plus they were local and too cheap not to! Going in for a refurb soon, think these will look better in a matte light silver or an off-white. Not sure if anthracite will suit them…
