Firstly hello to the board I'm sure you are all nice people. Me and a friend are looking at buying an F plate starion turbo the one with the big flared arches. We are not too clued up on the cars themselves but have plenty of experience fixing other makes models etc etc. This starion has some serious rot which doesnt really worry us as it makes it cheaper to buy, however we did wander what replacement panels are available for this car?. Chassis legs? sills? wings front and rear?. Or should I get my tin bashing hammer out?. I need the welding practice anyway. Any help greatly appreciated

hi lads,
welcome to the club.
alot of parts can be sourced through the club, but most are used parts.
doors, boots, bonnets, front wings yo can find easy-ish, but rear quarters are only avalible through mitsubishi at around £500 a side i belive, so easier to make/get some made.

but, after the hard work, they are great fun, and within reason, quite easy to tune.
hope this helps a bit.

take a look at dans post- he is doin a great job

there will be a few of us at retrocars show, santapod, 5th july. come along and have a chat.
