For many of you have learned (unfortunately the hard way), it is really expensive to build a nice RS clone. Yes, there are a bunch of them out there, but most of them are really not that great. This car is a very nice example.
The key with building a good RS is to start with a great car. This car was originally sold new in Southern California which means that it has lived a rust-free life. This car went through an extensive 2-year build. It is a great example and extremely well built. It was taken down to the bare metal and painted its original color in acrylic enamel with hardner. It then went through countless hours of hand color sanding and buffing to bring out its shine. The paint looks great. There are a few rock chips here and there from use, but that’s about it.
The mechanicals are just as nice as the body. Here are the details:
