Re: My Phase 1 ITB Daily Runner







looks brilliant mate, the red wheels really suit it!



What is the next plan, chapter, idea?

 

[Silent_Scone]

Re: My Phase 1 ITB Daily Runner

few really, as far as the car is concerned - a colour change - Audi Nimbus Grey - this will not be till next year now though.

And secondly drive it till it pops - whilst squeezing in as many track days as I can afford through q2 of next year

Nothing else to report really! Other than I still love the fecker. lol

Re: My Phase 1 ITB Daily Runner

I no exactly how you feel, recently picked up a 200 cup and its so boring to drive compared to my old ph1. Im working s**t loads of overtime so i can get it insured again.

Re: My Phase 1 ITB Daily Runner

don't paint it in an Audi colour!!! the 197 has a nice grey too

 

[Silent_Scone]

Re: My Phase 1 ITB Daily Runner

I'm tossing a few colours around tbh

 

[Silent_Scone]

Re: My Phase 1 ITB Daily Runner

Happy new year folks.


Last month I finally decided on a colour for the paint work and beginning to strip the car down. I'm sure it'll be a marmite thing but I've gone through various shades and this is the one I'm sticking with.


Porsche black grey. Too late to change my mind

innards are to be sprayed black.

Early Christmas present..to myself

Hopefully some real progress to report in a couple of weeks. Caneet wait!

Re: My Phase 1 ITB Daily Runner

That colour will look awesome

 

[Silent_Scone]

Re: My Phase 1 ITB Daily Runner

That's what I'm hoping!! The wheels are sprayed guard red which is the same as the above ^ it's an ancient Porsche colour from the 80s but looks spot on

 

[Cro]

Re: My Phase 1 ITB Daily Runner

This could be an epic colour scheme dude!

 

[Greeny.]

Re: My Phase 1 ITB Daily Runner

Looking forward to this

 

[Gray]

Re: My Phase 1 ITB Daily Runner

Love that colour....

Oh and a Sparco 300, steering wheel of Gods good choice.

Re: My Phase 1 ITB Daily Runner

init mon!!! My mate was trying to have it off me for his Cosworth. Got it at a steal price ...DENIED

 

[Nafoff]

Re: My Phase 1 ITB Daily Runner

like the colour, trying to work out how close it is to VW offroad grey lol

 

[Silent_Scone]

Re: My Phase 1 ITB Daily Runner

mate, tbh with you it could likely be the same colour code give or take. Most of the colour swatches i've been looking at are VW lol.

Oh, and one hyundai. Candy apple grey lol

Re: My Phase 1 ITB Daily Runner

Oh Mr Naughty Scone... What are you doing !!!

Also, WTF is 'candy apple' GREY ??? :S

a paint code. and I'm restoring a rusty piece of s**t what does it look like??? Isn't that what you're doing?

 

[Silent_Scone]

Re: My Phase 1 ITB Daily Runner

I'll find the proper code for it on the swatch tomorrow. It's a really glittery slate grey - quite sexual. It's also an album by the alternative rock band Hüsker Dü, released in 1986.. Thanks Google.

Re: My Phase 1 ITB Daily Runner

Very good read, loving the colour scheme

 

[Fletcher]

Re: My Phase 1 ITB Daily Runner

Colour scheme sounds good fella.

I keep on thinking about spraying mine lunar grey.

awesome colour that. Yours looks quite tidy though - mines in need of a few panels doing and front and rear bumper, so it would be rude not to get it just how I want it.

 

[Silent_Scone]

Re: My Phase 1 ITB Daily Runner

Inside is now fully blacked out and painted, started stripping it down last weekend. nothing interesting to update with really as it's all been rather slow..should all change as of Friday. No work for a week

 

[Silent_Scone]

Re: My Phase 1 ITB Daily Runner

All set for the car to roll into the booth, boot pins arrived yesterday and now on, and picked up a nicer fitting front bumper off BTM Fred as mine is knackered - will upload some crappy pictures later. Car is now ready for paint.

Re: My Phase 1 ITB Daily Runner

[bomber]

Re: My Phase 1 ITB Daily Runner

Good man, tempted to get mine on track at the action day...

 

[TheEvilGiraffe]

Re: My Phase 1 ITB Daily Runner
