ai, lowz and scene wheels = skidz maximus should be a decent enough bus once fixed though!

oh and check the pullies on the AC pump and power steering pump to ensure they turn relatively freely

i'd be removing the lot, sourcing good used replacements and replacing the full aux belt system. no idea whats happened there but with everything replaced for good used and new then should be sorted

looks lovely matey, enjoying the industrial decay setting of the pic too, took a pic of mine years back somewhere similar, if a few miles from you.....flol!

looks pensive there, ready to pounce on the streets below great pic!

Great write up, enjoyed the read If it's not had a full suspension and steering refresh yet then I'd recommend that to steer the car in the right direction..... Sorry! So every bush and joint/bearing up front ideally would want replacing to restore the original feel of the car. I run mine...

What a plank of a dealer. Never mind least you had a nosey at it! Lol!

Loving the eclectic catch cans for the brake fluid!

Cracking progress as ever, looking forward to seeing the completed car

Cheers @James172C feel free pop over one weekend when it's light for a nosey if you like, she won't be on the road till April ish though. @Chambers_RS I'll get a cover too! And yeah I'll probably do mallory again this year at some point!

7-1-2018 New Wheel Purchased a sabelt wheel, 330mm instead of 350mm and flat rather than dished. This means my arms sit better on the wheel from the seating position Yet to drive the car with it but position definitely feels better. Pics! Old dished 350mm omp item New sabelt held up in...

Bit of cling film tbh if all your doing is stopping muck getting in

Flol, schooled, as they say

in a word f**k that!

i'm in the slightly enviable position of owning both an RB and an Odyssey Phase 1, caught in a corner I have no idea which i'd say i'd keep as I love them both for completely different reasons. I've had the RB for 6 years now nearly and the Odyssey for just under a year, along with a couple of...

no worries, be interested to see how this turns out and how clean the car is for the mileage. i'd expect it to be immaculate and rust free etc. keep us posted!

test drive, you'll see it overrev when you drop clutch and let off the power to junctions etc can sometime feel it as hesitancy when accelerating etc as well

if its the one at Orion as well then it looks bloody lovely if as you say at the very top end of the spectrum of pricing!

ai mainly just check for rust, inside petrol filler cap too where the thing bolts in can be a sign. think you can just remove the speakers and pop phonecamera into sill to take a pic and see sticky throttle can be cable or body itself then its just normal clio mk2 stuff on top of that, belt...

whats wrong with the current gearbox? if you are going full standard restoration as well I would simply get the existing gearbox rebuilt edit, ignore I didn't read the original post correctly. however again unless you are getting into serious competition something with 172 cup ratios would be...

winter, leave it in the boot ;-)

its just a feed from the main blowers I believe so whatever temp that's at glove box is too

disagree, burn it, burn it all with fire :tonguewink:

wouldn't be an exclusive anymore then though and run the risk of devaluing. although spose you just keep original wheels and interior in a shed out the way where they can't hurt anyones eyes, then when you sell sell with both options.

Looks like it's got the 16" F1's on there..... :tongueout:

It's kind of strong money just after Christmas too so you may be lucky and it'll still be around in Feb However trying to find one for sale is getting harder and harder so may get bought quick. Just can't tell tbh

looks decent tbh and I would guess he has removed the bucket seat and refitted the standard one for sale only quibble for me is cambelt as well as it will be a 500 quid job this year, so i'd be going in at 2k max

nice work as ever, used and abused ftw!
