Thanks Rob - I thought they changed in the early 90's Jaime - early (or maybe all if Rob is right) RRC's had the panels bolted onto the steel substructure Bill |

well, let me say this, after dissasembling the 88 RR it pretty much bolts together, though i havent taken the skins off the door. i thought they were epoxied to theie interior steel frame. i do not know how those attatch, the other panels are just bolted aluminum panels. though i was drinking when i took the car apart, so i could be mistaken. rd |
