Has K88 DPD just surfaced from the dead? 👀
I'm sure a few will have seen the Sunflower on insta - Rest0rics, A pic today showing a glimpse of the reg. Looks to be getting a very good resto!
Didn't do much with it last year other than get it to a car show then away into storage.
Got it out the garage this year for its mot, New wheels and a took it to bo'ness car show at the weekend.
Looks great on the 16" f1's!
Seen this forsale too, Never actually noticed it was local at the time! which is probably a good thing.
I have ph1 black handles/ Boot handles available if you're still looking.....and 172 bodykits 😜
if theres anything else you need feel free to give me a shout and i'll see what i have, On fb...
Thats a decent deposit @Ant1 😝
Got Bilstein B14's for it this week so will need to get the suspension changed over soon, before its away to get detailed 🤦♂️
Well damn. 9 years since its last MOT it got another one...
Still a long list of random bits to tie up but thank fk for that 🤣
Not gonna take that apart again, Thats for sure 😅
Not much has happened after that, Got hold of a genuine v6 spoiler so had that painted and fitted. Hopefully get a front half of the cage for it this year and maybe a trackday or 2 🤞
Last pic with the latest project arriving on the trailer 🤦♂️ imagine a quiet life!

Rebuilt the head with wossner valves/cat cam valve springs/197 cams.
Using jenvey/pms itb's/pms breather plate/spacer and catch can. pms manifold and gen 90 ecu.
Pms engine mounts/pms radiator...
You will be shocked to hear it sat for a while after the bodyshop...not something id do 👀
Got suspension on. Went for Gaz golds/refurbed ast top mounts/refurbed Northloopcup RCK.
Fully gutted the inside ready for half cage etc.
So after my initial plan of keeping it fairly simple, I bought this ph1 in for breaking aswell as a couple of other ex track cars. (Cant find pics of the cup) but it gave me a new engine setup, Jc5 box with a Gripper diff and a half safety devices R022 cage...just what I didn't need.
I was...
Thought I'd stick a post up on my track car as i've only ever stuck pics in the Ph1 172 appreciation thread.
If you follow me on Facebook at Renomotive you will likely have seen this 👀
Anyway, Some background/pics.
I had djw John's old flamer for a few years. Looked great, But shock horror...
