company in nottingham who have just set up, can't remember off the top of my head but if you need contact details matey then just holler
ring? do you got my number man? i must of lost yours!lol
it is back together ;-) these were from a bit back its been painted since and i put all the interior back in last week on thursday, hopefully tomorrow i can refit the exhaust and take a few 'finished' snaps....sooooo excited!lol
....pics of the skin being fitted, only 2 the lads at the bodyshop took as they were, well fitting the skin mainly :lol:
WARNING - scary major clio surgery pics, not for the feint of heart or stomach :P
and a bit of a flock to finish off
should be off down the bodyshop...
i'm not really willing to disclose the exact price, mainly as i'm not entirely sure how much its going to come to but suffice to say with all the welding work and the interior being done as well, a few grand
rails and all other smoothing was done right this time with metal, filler was all removed and binned!
tigger - the detailing session made me see all the problems with it lol
sambo - place called l.w. smart repairs in alfreton mate, not cheap but very good
cage is not going lairy mate, and no roof lining will be going in, but i think you'll approve anyway ;-)
i have a single bucket and harness which will be going in
mk1 is the cream of the crop imo, love the looks, love the handling and love the increasingly retro lean of them
saying that i'm selling one of mine, lol
nah aimed at me i think mate lol
aerial hole is still there, i decided i wanted to keep just that, needs something to break it up, but the roof rails had to go lol
14-05-2009 Painted!
popped up to see the car, it had literally just come out the oven and to say i'm happy would be a little bit of an understatement
check out the party piece of the show as well.......no more showers for me in this bad boy now! :P
nice escort aswell at the shop today...
2 lads, both called matt off this site have owned it between then since around then? first guy had first batch of bodywork done on it in birmingham so not miles from there. other matt who owned it before me lived in essex so likely not to be him
its not a wolfsberg lol, last owner just bought the doorpins, FAIL lol but rattier the better so they are staying
i have a -60mm suspension kit for it, but i'm keeping it on current drop otherwise it wont be practical, speedbumps all over work on way in
and it has been abandoned and will...
best bet is the g40, same engine with a supercharger for 120bhp
can cam this lump aswell to over 100bhp with literally just a cam timed in properly. standard management can cope with it and will adapt, WIN
believe people have put all sorts in them tho for some serious either cash or home...
i'm back in warrington fella this weekend visiting the folks so i'm not gonna be able make it
carsington is like 5 miles from cromford mate on the ashbourne road, so right on my doorstep n all
just picked her up, ratty runabout for the win! :unibrow:
patched up the rust tonight, few electrical niggles to sort and i think the head gasket it less than perfect but for a coupla ton can't argue. new suspension, brakes and tyres all round and mot till november, good times!
let me...
erm, dont think he did addz mate, altho he may of, i tend not to listen lol i get jealous as mines off the road.
mike, whys your phone off? i need the bike servicing and was wondering if theres any chance this weekend, i'll try ringing you tomos
daz, your a crazy crazy man, but i love you...
i stripped the car, took all the panels off and attempted to prep the interior for paint, stripped the tar out etc etc so i've done some bits n bobs, probably saved a couple of days labour on it
