you know what i think of this brad!!
might have to do a little photo project of you with all your work over easter, and get some slick pics of the car as well.

all it needs now is a lairy engine to go into to.
16v g60? haha. you were thinkin of 1.8 16v on carbs wernt you?

impressive stuff mate, and those wheels are spot on!
you decided on a final colour yet?

also can you do plastic welding stuff? like would you be able to smooth off a front big bumper number plate recess?that would look cool...

Cheers for the coments people!

Defo sam,i really want some arty farty pics of the build so in the future i can dream of days gone by! lol
Engine wise going with a 2l 16 on carbs but thinkin im need of something abit more special. haha

Ed colour is a matt metalic copper,bit random i know but think its gonna work with the black parts around the car.
Yep i do plastic welding,you've got the same plans as me lol.

a carb'd 2l 16v isnt too shabby.
now just bolt a turbo on!! haha.

flat copper with gloss black trim. that would be nice.

Yeah will see what money allows lol!

Thats what i thought,copper with satin black bits,gonna do the lump satin black with afew copper plated bits,eg carbs me tinks.

Great work must have been very time consuming. It will definately be worth it in the long run though! I'm loving the DIY debadged grille any finished pics of that?

im back on the 16th march, so give us a holla is you ever need a hand like.

Tom- yep most weekends and some evenings spent on it, i just cant wait to see it in paint! Havnt finished the grill as im not going to use it anymore, planning on running a choice of two grills the first is a seven slat fourlight with badge and the second no lights with a badge to the side.

Sam i'll defo get in touch when your back,want me some cool piccys!

Little bit done on this in between customers cars..
Got the arches in filler now,also made a start on the inside metal work...




Have done some work on the rear panel and old filler recess but no piccys yet.

looking sweet boss! you got some skillful hands.

planned all this for my 16v and as of a whole year it still sits on the drive untouched and unfortunately, due to lack of skill and no how and money it prob always will be sat on the drive!

what wheels are they cuz they are sweet!?

i think they are Cragars or something like that.
they look pretty sweet though.
space them out get get something with a silly low ET to get some poke on those arches! haha

edit: just to change the name of the wheel, oopsy

Thanks people,yeah sam ur spot on, cragers ftw!
Neways, got the rear finished n ready for paint now, woohoo!





Aslo gave the arches a first sand then reskimed them, hopefully just one more sand and they'll be good.
