Fc3s 1990 turbo ii convertible

HI FOLKS

Just joined in the search of help really i will no doubt post in various sections and annoy / chat to folk on many occasions.

I have only owned my rex for 2 months but intend on refurbing her back to original condition

My first job was to find why the car was full of water so i lifted the floor mats and dryed her up then sealed up the doors it was missing the flaps at front of the doors......
Then m next task was to remove the horrible spoiler that should not have been on the car......

this left a bit of a mess





But filled and painted and now car looks loads better



I now need to paint the rest of the car and treat all the rust on the arches and around the doors ..........

This car has only done 50000 miles since new and is excellent condition just shame i live here and not in a hot sunny climate where i dont have to worry about it raining nearly every day....

any way just a quick introduction i'll be posting more soon and asking many a question i'm sure as little things are already going wrong.....

Because over here hardly anyone likes to ask questions but i found that if i remove badges folks have to ask,
" what car is it ? "
then they ask more questions because they have started a conversation.

I am really just helping folk to communicate via voice again ha ha
