Hi,
Here I have my mk4 prelude I haven't had it long so I am new to these cars, I got it from a friend down the road It hadn't been started for 6 years so the battery was knackered but I put a new battery of and she fired first time so I got it back home (to the farm) and it has been siting around for a bit so I decided I would do something with it so im going to do it up ,ill keep you posted on how it is going as long as there is some interest but as I am a farmer I am busy a lot so I will just post when I have time , ill try to get some pictures up soon.

Hi and welcome.

Wowsers! Yes that's some serious work there.

Still, looks like a late plate face-lift uk car with all the toys, so that's good.

You can get rear quarter and sill panels off the forum. Don't know anywhere to get the A pillars from I'm afraid, that might have to be custom fab...

Interesting seeing one cut open like that - I never knew how tightly the front sunroof drain tubes packed the A pillar :shock:

Save your efforts, as above... Will be wiser to buy a rust free runner, and transfer som bits across..... 500quid u can have a car that works.. ;)
