Also spent abit of time on the engine making it look pretty :) plan tonight was to get the aux belt on with the custom pully set up. Ive ad to remove some alternater casing to allow it to fit due to the rs2 extra spacer putting it in the way. Got it all done went to put the belt on thinking this is silly long. I forgot to put PAS pump back on :-(

Getting there tho.

That rs2 looks a bit tatty compared to the shiney engine, swap for a shiny standard inlet for the rs2 ? :laughing:

Subscribed to this. I'm sure it'll be a cracking car when it's finished. You just need to resist the urge to sell bits of it!

Yeh i know mate lol im coming away from the breaking side as its no fun being down work in the dark under a car in the mud. Thats why im going into the flocking.

Some very nice bits going on this car!

Yeah it's not the best time if year to have to work outside. It's not nice seeing Clio's being broken either but while there's a market someone will do it. In a few years mint examples will be worth good money!
Is the still a hole in the market since black sheep flocked up and became no 1 on everyone's s**t list? Could be a good venture.

Well part of it is because i want quite abit done and i dont like spending money just ask @ast lol so ill do it myself saves money if i mess up its on me ill do it again.

If i can tie that in with a breaker every now n then becoming a trader on here will be worth it for me.

Surely the Cup @ADS1982 sold you would of been a better project than this black one @cs_dave ?

The black one, is that damage behind the light or something?

Surely there are better shells without the DIY respray etc pal?
The cup ad a bad rep the black shell hasnt been rear ended its not damaged. Lee paints much better cars than clios mate so his work is sound by me i wouldnt call it diy tbf to him.

Yeh it needs more work few marks on bumper so on but hey its part of the fun the pic shows the massive spiders web lol
 
Yeah fair one I wasn't sure how you painted it that's all, and know you've broken a fair few what look to be perfectly good Clio's lol

A black car this age is always going to need some attention. Look forward to how this one turns out :up:
