Well I’ve got some sad news. The clio is going up for sale.
After years of asking the current owner of my old Celica gt4 if he would sell it back to me he said no. So that gave me the go ahead to buy the clio. I’ve now been offered the Celica back and after talking with my wife there’s no way I...
Thanks v much. I’m finding the parts hunting isn’t too bad really, just money ha ha. I do need some solid doors but I’m in talks for a pair. Once I’ve got the parts ill need to save up for ages for all the fabrication and body work

I have been keeping my eye out for parts though and have even re-joined Facebook for FBMP. Last night this paid off, big time.
travelled to a great lad initially for a dash but ended up with...
Latest bits came this week:

.Engine mount cover
.Neg battery terminal
.Radio cover
still saving for more body panels but as things come up for sale I need to grab them. Did miss out on the williams subframe this...
So my idea to 3D print the rear right bump strip was because the one I found in the boot was all plastic. After looking at the ones on the car, I realised they have a rubber coating so no chance of recreating them.
After a bit of a random email, I got in touch with a lovely bloke who said he...
