hi i'm a new owner to this forum i have a evo 6 in icelle blue, the car inside is in good condition and so is engine and running gear however the whole rear end under boot floor is real bad rot and rusty from ayc diff back to sparewheel well is this common on this car. I am therefore in desperate need for a evo 6 bare shell which is in good condition underneath please so as can rebuild mine. i'm not fussed about doors bonnet boot spoiler etc as i will transfer all this over to new shell. After full respray cos i am a painter and body repairer.

Hiya and welcome along

Have you tried jap performance parts ? they deal with a lot of evos like shells, spares all sorts, but can be a bit pricey.

Here's their link : Jap Performance Parts : Home
