Burnsie the
rally wagon - New Rally Skin is Complete
|
|
|
Body Repair has been completed!
The cause of the crash was found when
we realized the rear struts had COLLAPSED in on themselves (see
photos of the damaged rear strut tops). Basically turning the Subaru
rear suspension into a pogo stick. Dave Clark did an amazing
job of getting this rally car back into perfect shape and ready for
the paint and body shop. The welds are fantastic... The
bodywork, nearly flawless.
Now... off to paint... - Jamie |
