Re: MK1 F7R track car project

It's ok. I wont!
Did a bit of work on it today. Bit more on the cage, changed the steering column mounting and fitted seat properly. Just needs door bars and passenger side seat mounting in. Inside will get sprayed in a couple of weeks. I'll post some pictures tomorrow.

Re: MK1 F7R track car project

Blah Blah Blah!
Its finished really. Got to do a few little things. Couple of things don't work exactly as I want but its mostly done. A bit more cage is going in. I am remounting the seats. Bought some 1.6mm plate and some more 42mm CDS tube today. Paint is all bought to spray the inside, just need to finish the cage and seats. I really am going to try to get all that done for sunday morning. I would like the inside in primer before sunday tea time ideally. Lets see ay!

Here are a few pictures

Re: MK1 F7R track car project

Some cool pictures.

The inside is now all keyed up and I have zinc primed the roll cage.
Ordered a new spray gun from machine mart.

Re: MK1 F7R track car project

We've still go a few more bits to do; spray the sills and spray the filler and wing mirror cap. Then finish flatting and polishing the exterior. Dannys coming round on new years eve to get it all put back together.

Re: MK1 F7R track car project

Looks amazing! Still in love with my Mk1 PH3 1.4RT probably because its my first car, but i think i will always find space for a Mk1 Clio somewhere, Really really want a PH1 Valver or Williams
Keep up the work, Love reading this thread!!

Re: MK1 F7R track car project

looking good mate. but wouldnt the cage be better boxed in at the front rather than just the 2 plates??

Re: MK1 F7R track car project

Danny was too busy playing football today (s**t game imo) so I fitted the doors, boot, all the rubber seals and carbonate 3.4's all by my sen. I also closed the bonnet after fitting the scuttle... then realised theres no pedle box fitted thus no bonnet cable... doh! Also going to be fitting a cut down and modified heater box and 1.2 dash top.

Happy new year btw.
