not tempted to reset the rear slightly lower to keep it more level, surely its going to nose down badly under braking like that? overall though great work on the refit and for not actually 'ruining' it as all the bits are just bolt on anyway! lovely stuff!

looks a good buy and yes agree, remove tints and harness'

Paint in hand rattle can job like a boss! zero f***s given ;-) Mess all over the place as ever, working neat is not in my nature! despite initial best intentions, the excruciating heat didn't help matters in all honesty! painted the scuttle for about the 23rd time, need to strip back...

also crossed shafts and exhaust leak off too!

Went quite well this weekend despite the temps, managed to cross most stuff off the list!

yeah my willy's were all a bit rough.....ahem, killed 2 of them for spares and sold the last one for naff all :( all I have left is the plaque from the first one I killed, 0062, stuck to my works computer screen to remind me of my heinous crimes! do love a phase 1 though, mines a lovely thing...

mine dropped, was the thermostat, had a hole in the rubber seal so the engine was never getting up to correct temp and just chucking fuel in

I've got a quaife too, great bit of kit and easy to look after in that you don't have to! just fit and forget :)

looks lovely that @Mark Shaw do you regret getting rid of your Williams? I've had 3 Williams and shouldn't of got rid of any of them, biggest car regret!

As @Daniel mentions it's all a matter of personal preference. Me I'd be looking for a mk1 16v or Williams not technically RS but from the before time. However both likely to appreciate and much more evocative than any of the later Renault and more usable than any of the earlier.

Sometimes I worry a bit about you chap 😂

As above that's none standard

seen you pulling out at Hurt Arms few times and heading back to Belper from A610 way :) always thought looked like a nice motor, defo need to meet up for a pint and a spin out matey be good to look it over :) @Party Pete

lol, yep just down the road then! probably seen the pulsar, is it black, front mount and caged? and as everyone else has said, @MicKPM for belts, he's in Long Eaton and knows his Renaults!

the Derby looks lovely!

Welcome! I'm Derbyshire based and got a few Clio's so if you need a hand let me know, more than willing to help in exchange for a blast out in the Pulsar ;-) mega cars those! Ben

Quick update, got an MOT on her and sorted the welding to get it. Buying some red tomorrow to rattle can it cuz trackcar Also wrote a list of stuff to do before Cadwell on the 13th of next month :-)

lol!!! good news, spares are always useful!

Well, MOT failed as expected on welding, two more patches needed and the sill on the drivers side which I knew about. Only other issue in 13 months of being laid up is the wiper motor decided to seize so need to source a new one of those too. So should hopefully have her back and on the road...

Nice, looking forward to that front end going on :-)

the phase 1 regrets from all coming out the woodwork now note to self, never sell the odyssey! and never mention mk1 F4R conversion that lead to death of an iceberg.........

nice progress :)

so glad you saved this, nice motor now :)

that looks superb :)

Have you actually removed the radio again and made sure the aerial connection to the back of it hasn't fallen off when you slid the stereo into the dash?

nicely!

Do both, the insert won't last on a completely shot engine mount imo

Lol at danger w**k

shouldn't do, I lopped off all my plugs in dash loom that I wasn't using, still need to do it right and chase wires back but plug chopping was fine like an animal I chopped with engine running, see if it broke, lol!!

nice! love that it was something simple!
