This is where the project really starts.... i wanted the newer MG ZR front
look, so i decided to do it myself :) I purchased a Rover 25 front panel, wings
& headlamps. Also a MG ZR front bumper..
This is the process so far....

|
|
|
The start.

Front side.

First the bumper comes off......
|
|
|
|
..along with the wings....
|
|
|
|
|
|
...and headlamps.
|
|
|
|
Next off is the front panel.
|
|
|
|
I done this by grinding off the spot welds.
|
|
|
|
Leaves it pretty open dont you think.
|
|
|
|
Found lots of surface rust and welding wire in there!
|
|
|
|
|
|
Engine out along with front subframe.
|
|
|
|
Rear subframe and rack out.
|
|
|
|
Lots of space to work around.
|
|
|
|
Needs a good clean.
|
|
|
|
T16 rear subframe and rack, painted.
