    "zara" 88" S3's Transformation

    the first photo in her old home

    This is her first day in my ownership


    at home and with her brother and sisters



    now to get her registered
    steering and front chassis needed some attention









    now on to the radiator support panel total rebuilt bottom


    panel beating and cosmetic stuff





    cleaning the chassis revelled no more rust except for the rear cross member





    I will add more as we go along

    Richer than me obviously

    Still, what you can do with the right tools and good access... Makes a whole lotta difference.

    That shed has been evolving for about 20 years now and it is finally finished
    so some serious work can be done restoring my Landy's

    I bought mine a few months ago and I haven't even hooked it all up yet .

    Once I finish pulling the Disco apart I can pull the Statesman apart then I can get the Kingswood chassis back in the shed and start welding.

    Too many projects!
