New poster! (less than 10 posts)
Hi Guys.. Finally taken a night off to start my thread and search for coilovers!
To cut my life story short, iv been involved in motorsport since I was born (now 19) So building and preparing cars is my hobby! Im also a driver coach for a kart team! Iv owned and messed about with 2 kitcars over the last few years and just fancied a change! Roll on Renault 5!
So.. Id just sold my quantum kitcar
And money burning a hole in my pocket spotted a 5 turbo for £800! After a quick test drive I knew I wanted it! It didnt look too bad condition wise, needed new sills and the engine sounded sweet and boosted well!
I spent that weekend looking on images and ebay and looking all over the house for spare change to help fund it!
Im also involved with the north easts modified car culture, so I heard about an upcoming show.. Modified nationals! Me being me decided that the renault would be a good car to try and build to show standard and to try get a magazine feature! 3 weeks later and 3 weeks to the show this i what i have!
Enough of the waffle ill let the pictures say the rest! (sills are both off now and I have new recplacement ones)
Other progress.. pics to follow!
- Flocked door cards, center console, plastic pillar & rear quarter trims
- Carbon wrapped grey section of the dash & glovebox lid (leaving the black section leather look)
- Snap of Momo steering wheel
- red carpet cleaned
- original seats cleaned
Ohh all the holes have been welded now except new sills put on all inside has been re- seam sealed and its getting a full respray inside and out in White!
ON THE LOOKOUT FOR COILOVERS TO GET HER SLAMMED!
