Stripped down the road coupe for a re-spray at x-mas, but i got a bit excited and decided to do some body modifications and go all out so i'm still working at it.

I have enough progress now to start a worth while project thread though and hopefully it will all come together in the not too distant future

Will start posting some photos and chat away about what i have been up to

BEFORE PICTURE

i was driving around like this pretty much for a year... did change a few things like wheels and parcel shelf but essentialy just drove it how i got it (from supafatto)

ok - been uploading to photobucket so i can post the pics...

this is the only shot i have at the moment which shows the stripping down of parts and sanding to remove the last persons paint job (2 weeks straight of sanding - thanks nick)

genuine thanks goes to datogal for sanding the doors down!




will add more photos of this work later

stripped interior. removed tar on floors to check for rust. left tar on tunnel for sound deadning. gave the floor a light coat of tar paint to ensure it is sealed

Why does the thread have your user name in the subject line ? It tells us clearly who the thread is by in enough places.

vinyl die sprayed the roof lining white

by the end of x-mas holidays we hit the car with primer/highfill where it had been stripped

photo to come

It was at the end of the x-mas holidays that we realised that the first rally for the year was fast approaching. The last event last year the air filters caught fire on the rally car and they changed the rules to allow us to run a14 so I quickly changed over to concentrating on getting a motor rebuilt and fitting it in to the rally car along with all the other bits and pieces that needed doing.

I had started dreaming of putting flares on the car and chased up a glass front spoiler. took some time to decide what look i wanted but eventually out came the porta-power




i have fitted a h190 vanette diff to fill out the flares

i had the front gaurds from my old red coupe so i fitted those up with a new bonnet
