Progress on my MR2.

Since I bought the end of January 2017 I have not used the car as been gathering parts waiting for an improvement plan on the car.

It is in getting some TLC with RE-Worx a RX7 Specialist I know who has carried out previous welding and fabrication work for me.

I bought this car knowing it needed a little bit of rust repair work so factored the repair into what I paid.

I looked at few for sale and saw some horror stories under supposed rust free cars with skirts, etc.

hiding hidden horrors.

However even with an ownership of other 90's Japanese cars I was surprised to see how bad this was from the rusty area at the top of the wheel arch.

I have bought a replacement rear arch panel from a rust free MR2 being broken which will provide a base for the outside of the arch while the inner arch will also be fabrication work.

The other rear arch is all good while the sills had been done and passed mine and RE-Worx approval.
