Re: Valver Track Car Project Thread There were two bolts going down through the top cross member holding it in and then it lifted out easily. Ah well, it'll be reet!

Re: Valver Track Car Project Thread A possible 'watch this!' moment? :clown:

Re: Valver Track Car Project Thread I fear you're right Hudson :( 2 rivets to hold the VIN plate on? :S Front end bump at some point then? And repaired with possibly the wrong panel from a different/newer model? No idea :S. It's one piece from the inner wing right over to the other...

Re: Valver Track Car Project Thread I'd just say that was paint loss for whatever reason over 14 years, not particularly sharp or anything. Worried now lol

Re: Valver Track Car Project Thread Which bit makes you think that though? :S I'll have a search for a picture of someone elses car to compare.

Re: Valver Track Car Project Thread Yep, projects without pictures are annoying, probably why I've gone a bit OTT but not to worry. The slam panel/cross member, erm, yeah. I don't understand it. I thought it was meant to be bolted like you say, but I came to take it off and there are no...

Re: Valver Track Car Project Thread Yeah the lack of rust is nice, but it'll no doubt appear at some point. Least yours is sorted now!

Re: Valver Track Car Project Thread Yep, bit of a willy wannabe really, with the wheels too when I got it! Price was alrite aye, especially after those 17" things went. Already spent the same again, good fun though!

Very unlucky! Was it overdue?

Re: Valver Track Car Project Thread Right, back to work tomorrow after my week off, so I thought while I've got my tools at home I may as well doing something useful with them (despite doing nothing for the rest of the week, minor detail :clown:) So started prepping for the engine to come...

Re: Valver Track Car Project Thread Cheers :) CF door cards? No, too heavy :cool:

Re: Valver Track Car Project Thread Thanks mate, nice to hear coming from you! We'll see :) Thanks bud.

Lol, bit low! Nice to have your own ramps though :)

Cup spoiler's looking better! Good pics mate :)

Like that!

Re: Valver Track Car Project Thread Right I got a little bit more done today, it's too blummin cold to be working on it at the moment though, even in the garage! Need to buy a better heater for in there I think. When I started. You can about see the plastic plate that I've siliconed over the...

Sister? Pics required tbh.

Yup, is that your trained eye or the photobucket album name?!

Ah, you'll be Jack then. Good work!

It's his mates/brothers/cousins car, homer simpson on here i believe.

Re: Valver Track Car Project Thread Cheers :) Ah well, makes me quicker!
