The offset isn't ideal being et43. They were resting on the shock when I fitted them with more camber so I'll probably sack them off when I find another set of something with ~et37. I like the look of them, cba messing about with spacers though.
The passenger side is sat on the subframe as...
Mk2 tray didn't fit without either a) drilling a new hole in the car or b) modifying the tray as I have done. I ought to have taken a pic but I've been rushing all weekend! Or maybe its off something else, I honestly can't remember where I got it from, lol.
More time on it again today. Half decent progress :)
Found a spot for the ECU under the headlight. Only temporary as I want to move it inside eventually, but with the time I'm working to it'll do for now
Alternator and brackets all fitted
New suspension and top mounts on. It's far...
I knew there would be something wrong when I saw you'd posted!
Never actually compared the two pin positions side by side, was just going from what I'd read and been told previously about fitting Mk2 boxes with Mk1 trays. Keeping everything Mk2 gives me the option of changing the mount for a...
Bit more done today. Not back in work until Tuesday so Ive got plenty of time over the weekend to crack on.
Brake master cylinder and reservoir fitted back on and lines painted black to neaten them up a little
GT width (+30mm) passenger seat in. For anyone with a big cage in a little...
It's coming along quite nicely now. Panels seen on the car are all 449, so you can see the colour different between new and old. Fitted a replacement rear screen into the boot as the old one got smashed.
A few upto date snaps, click the thumbnails to enlarge else they'll take forever to load
Cheers :)
It'll probably be black for starters until I get some other bits sorted, then I have another immaculate 449 bonnet which I might cut out and paint 432 at a later date.
I'm going to get the car running again now, and go to oulton with multi coloured panels if needs be :D
There are a few areas which could do with a bit of wet sanding, then it ideally all needs cutting back afterwards. Not something I can do by hand so I'm hoping to get a hand from someone with a machine polisher. Going to leave it for a bit yet though as you say :)
I prefer the colour to 449...
My couple of new lights, helped out no end when painting :)
Outside and started putting a few bits back on
Mega pleased with how this is going to look, similar to Mk2 dash strips that people fart about painting, but slightly more solid :D
Well well well, it's done!
I had today booked off work to get the rest of the outside prepped and painted, so after waking up at 12 I made a start. Popped out for a while to pick up some halogen work lights from machine mart, they helped no end when painting and pretty cheap too.
Pushed...
