From looking at the pictures, here are some things you will need;

Belt drive lexan cover(expensive for such a part)

Stabilizer bar link(complete, not partial, you only need the link)

Gold shock collars

Or you can clean them really good and dye them also

And the correct rear springs.

Maybe you can find most parts here.

Like Keithrc said; "Looks like it'll clean up well Colin, having a straight front brace and lower guard is a bonus too. Looking forward to seeing it all cleaned up and finished."
That's a bonus!!!

Hi Optiman,
Thanks for the reply, and the links as well. You're right that is a lot to part with for a small piece of lexan!

I'm hoping to have the missing stabilizer link in the spare lazer parts I have, but I will have to change out the spring collars for the correct ones.

I'm sure the shopping list will start growing pretty quickly.

Colin
