Hi @Stu.
Unfortunately now this sunflower has now been scrapped, but yes it was the dodgy one with the skirts bonded on.
But it did have an alloy bonnet
Also nice to meet @mossyv6, @OssPoop, Kirsty and all the others I met.
Thanks most of all to my friend @NorthloopCup for a hilariously funny and brilliant day. Thank mate

All the tar patches I’ve collected so far
All gone!!
And cleaned off
Had a look at the last two in the rear quarter where the seat belt reels were. These seem a little tight and awkward...
I dropped off the rear beam off the RB to allow removal of the fuel tank. I plan to remove the rear beam brackets to get the powder coated.
I then made a start on removing some of the bracketry that was surplus to requirements
I also removed the bootlid to install my CM composites bootlid...
The more I strip the more I see YK54VFC has secrets from its past.
It would seem at some point its had a rear end bump. Thanks a F**king bunch the previous owner who got this repaired poorly ?
Anyway nothing that can’t be sorted with some genuine Renault parts and a good bodyshop!!
Started my strip of the RB in anger, did the customary tar patch removal. Removed the dash, steering rack and pedal box
It’s certainly changed a lot since this photo
Well there is plenty has happened and plans have changed in two years. I have changed jobs at work and I have been catching up on 11 years worth of diy jobs!!
Anyway to bring things up to date...
Had my gearbox rebuilt with a Quaife diff by a certain someone ?
Got some seats
Changed my...
Hi @partybish
To be honest the more and more I took off the sunflower the worse it looked so I cut my losses. ?
To be honest this thread is well overdue for an update, plans have changed somewhat from my last update
But thanks for looking ?
I’m sure @NorthloopCup wopl have something to say
Looking good Scott @Tomotek , you certainly provide inspiration ? Looks like the car is running well, at what point are you planning to do your further upgrades?
Did you get my email with the CAD drawings I promised?
