    That pink bagged baguette

    Its all getting re enforced where its been cut out dont worry😂 And i got a draper 92454 25A plasma cutter, just under £300 and for the money you really can’t complain. Its the first time ive ever used one, but it was very easy to use. After a few passes you get a feel for what works better...

    Quick mock up with everything bolted on to get a idea of how it will sit height wise. Im getting a new wheel set up, so once its all done i can finally start dialling in the fitment and get it sitting nice.

    Its been a while since ive posted on here, i few little bits have happened since. I finally got her on all fours and trailed over. From there i thought id see how low it would actually sit on the back as its never had the full weight of the car on the rear end. and i was very happy with the...

    After waiting long enough, ive finally managed to get my hands on a unit. So i can actually have more room to work with on my builds. Before i get the clio ready for the move ive dialled in the rear height which im happy with now. started the chopping on the front arches so i can move onto the...

    Currently in the process of blocking out with 80grit. Whenever i next carry on with the bay i should be down to 300grit base once i fill in any pinholes and other little imperfections.

    So close to the final shape now. Once i have a solid base to work with i can start to finalise it. Work out any imperfections and get a nice flat finish.

    All the welding in the bay is finally done now, few plates needed cutting out and welding in so i could get a form of curvature in the corner. I didnt get round to taking loads of pics as i just wanted to crack on and get everything welded in. Went on to carry on with the fibreglass filler to...

    Yeah leaving it behind there would of just been a absolute pain. i was going to do a ABS delete but i couldnt be bothered with the hassle. Made much more sense to keep the factory pump, just fab up custom lines and relocate it outside of the bay.

    That pink bagged baguette

    ABS pump is being relocated into the scuttle. Ive changed my heaters to a 12v heater box so ive got loads of room in the scuttle now.

    Yeah this is being nothing but a pain to be honest with you. luckily im okay when it comes to electrics. Im weirdly looking forward to making up a new loom, relay board and other bits.

    That pink bagged baguette

    Haha yeah i sent it in knowing full well they would hate it😂 I’d be stupid to think that they’d like it. I just didn’t think it would make the thumbnail. It did the trick though as I’ve gained a lot more people following the build on my instagram now.

    That pink bagged baguette

    plates on strut tower cut down on both sides as im wanting them to be symmetrical on both sides when finished. Still needs a clean up and smooth down so its a even shape and no sharp edges. Cut out the raised areas on the scuttle ready for blanks to be welded in so its a neat finish. (The a/c...

    Im going to run a 12v heater box instead as its more compact. The car will only be used for shows and some weekends so its not to big of a deal for me.

    Bit more work done recently. Started removing rusted areas, applied some rust prevention over and then some primer. Also started to apply fibreglass filler into the areas that are going to be smoothed. Templates made up using card and then cut out and bent into shape ready to be welded into...

    Again, been prioritising other things so work has been slow. Started the pain of a job which was removing the seam sealer and getting the bay prepped for fab work. Also roughly marked out areas that need cutting out for more custom fab work to be done in the arches, to allow for a bigger wheel...

    Been a while since ive done any work on this, priorities have changed recently so progress has been slow. Subframe and a few other bits have been sent off for powdercoating so i should expect to get them back sometime soon. as im no longer running a form of a/c or oem heater unit. Im stuck on...
