Part eleven....:coffee:
Photos that I did bodywork/re-spraying for my mate Max who called his car Doris and regularly attended with me to r5gtts owners' club events, this car now written off and scrapped after side-on accident with woman who didn't see him turn right from main road and over taken him as he approached side street at Burnley Road, Brierfield.
(Haz bought most parts and v5 log book on G99 LBD for his re-shelled r5gtt)

Part twelve....:coffee:
My red r5gtt that I bought cheap from one of those trade-in cars for brand new models at my old job Renault Kitchens (Burnley).
The paintwork was fading but mint shell with no rot, I sprayed it bright red and several layers of clear lacquer to achieve deeper red paintwork plus adding subwoofers LOL:cool:

Part thirteen....:coffee:
Past customers' cars I did on repair/re-spraying ( the last two pics of black Campus 1.2 r5gtt look-a-like was for my nephew's 18th from my sister, the story of how it happened, that night he collect the freshly painted with new r5gtt bodykits, he only drove it for an hour with his mates and he wrote it off after driving too fast on down hill and lost control, the rear wheel and beam completely rip in half at the bridge wall but he and his mates were very lucky to get out of it alive as the car was stopped at crash barrier to prevent it end up over the bridge to railway line):eek::sad2:

My green met r5gtt that I used as advertisement of my business, I had it for two years but had to scrapped the shell as one of my staff borrowed my car, went fast driving it and hit the pot hole badly, it twisted the shell bad but I still kept the parts such as bonnet, doors, tailgate and bumpers etc. at my shed for over 15 years cos it was so mint! LOL :wasntme:
