Just a few pics of my project so far, which is slow in progress at the moment. I bought this car from Ebay a few months ago without viewing in first, and to be honest it needed a little more work than I first thought. That said, it was in the main a solid shell with a great original interior and rebuilt engine and 5 previous owners, so i bought it. Structurally car is in need of two new inner and outer sills, rear bumper mounts and a new jacking point. Plus I am replacing a door and the bonnet (Thanks Adam005, Ashy and Mike 16V )
I stripped the interior out and the floor pan and seal/edges are spot on, as are the rear quarters, front wings. The car has gone to the welders to be sorted out and then off to the bodyshop for the rest of the work and repray, as i'm not a welder/panel beater/sprayer I thought that was all best left to the professionals
My intention is to keep the exterior and interior as original as possible, with lowering/ Williams alloys. I've got some parts with the car that are waiting to go on, but the basics are going to be changed before I start modifying the engine:
New Battery Tray
New Front/Rear Screen Rubber
New Front/Rear Bumper Inserts
New Wishbones (have already)
New Polybush kit (have already)
New Brakes All Round (have all new discs already)
New Suspension All Round (coilovers or standard uprated?)
New Lighting (Headlights/Fogs/Repeaters)
And whatever else breaks or looks like needs replacing before I can move on to the luxuries such as engine modifications etc. Luckily the car came with it's original rear screen and door badges too which is nice
I will keep updating as i go and asking questions i'm sure, but check back if you're interested!!
Don't know why i plastered this in Kurust when it was getting replaced, but hey
Jacking point that is being replaced with a new one from Renault
