Being as i now have another car on the road, the XR2 has been taken off the road as it needs touching up in a few places. Being as id killed the bottom end and front end had some rust i decided to start there. So tonight i went up my sisters where the car is kept and made a start.

Heres the first piccy of how the front end was:

the 1.8 16v fits into the shape newer than that so probably will go in there too.. maybe a slight bulk head cut tho
