Very similar to my restoration, I should join in and back date my project flamer

I'd gladly lend a hand if you weren't 4 hrs away

Danny's a nice bloke, bought an exhaust from him

Resonated ?

When I bought it I was blissfully unaware they only made 99 icebergs

Yes I just looked it up, its owned by a bloke with a fair collection of old hot hatches. Hes stripped it as a track day car which is such a shame, it was immaculate

Is that mine?

Unfortunately a very low mileage track car now

Well theres plan C right there! currently plan A is go deaf.

Its widely used in the motorbike world, ECP stock it

Isn't it Janspeed?

Heres mine a few years back

It was the blue colour I wasnt keen on with mine

Phase 1's needed that cup spoiler. I think a ph1 with cup spoiler and ph2 rear bumper is near perfection, not exactly purist but hey! Oh and ph2 interior

Hell yes get resonated, mine isnt! Sounds great above 5k but droney just where you want it for cruising at 60-70mph. I'm doing myself no favours here because I'm looking for someone who wants a swap with my centre section otherwise I'll see if a mate can weld in a silencer if that's easily done.

BH epoxy mastic?

Ren Breakers aren't prepared to send me a photo that's in focus so they can do one

Yep get the Bigg Red kit, FYI they are loads cheaper on eBay than on their site

I've just done my 172 rears, easy and like @jamesBsaid leave the handbrake seals alone except for the covering boot

I'm in the middle of an underside restoration (car is still on the axle stands after all the wind!) Where I've had to get back to bare metal I've coated with 2x hydrate 80, 2x electrox and was going to finish this off with Dynax UB. Will this be sufficiently robust or should I be putting a stone...

Yeah I'd say mine is similar to be fair, I panicked I think! There is a nasty bit up high where the tunnel for the exhaust and handbrake cables run but I'll need to get the tank out for that.

I could have cried when I scraped back the first bit of underseal

That's a lot you've got done there, how does my corrosion compare to yours?

Opened this can of worms....

Yep drives me mad

Also why do people always lie body panels on rough tarmac when trying to sell them as mint?

Not found one in flame red close by as yet, I might consider looking for any colour and getting it sprayed when I get the front bumper done. Having said that I'd travel for a good flamer bonnet but being on south wales border they never come up close by.

Has anyone used Ren Breakers on Ebay? I'm tempted by a bonnet they are selling. Delivery of a bonnet seems risky but they are offering it

Is that the rear disc spacer sat on the floor?

I will, I've done more to it than any of my previous 1*2s even though it's by far the untidiest. Fingers crossed on the mounts🤞
