Hi,
I've bought 3.0 CSI '72 some time ago. Currently I'm fighting with rust and try to restore my coupe.

Condition before restoration:

Welcome! I need to lower the front of my car. I like the way yours looks with the nose a lot lower.

It looks like you have the thinner euro front turn signal lenses. And NO reflectors to be seen.

Oh my! You got yourself a project there!

I would really like more information and pictures, was it really that badly rusted? It does look pretty decent in the before-picture.

Are you replacing all the panels with new ones, or are you going to put the old panels back?

Second that.

First to third picture should be shown to all potential new buyers to clearly demonstrate what can lurk beneath.

Best of luck with your project.

Hi, my project is still in progress. Actually bodywork is almost finish.
Actual total time of bodywork is 700 hours.

If you're interested I can put some additional documentation of progress.

Maybe admin can move this topic to project subforum.

I just got a bad feeling in my stomach.

Gransin,

yours at least looked rusty before hand. I'd love to see some detailed before pics, plus more surgery photos.
