in no order

comments ideas welcome! :)

bit of info its lowered around 120mm on front and on coilies on the rear the wheels are polished bimmer e30 its the standard 1l engine on a pieburg carb I'm gonna rip it out n go for a 1.6 skoda falicia on bike carbs i think for paint I'm thinking old school black n cream or black with cream go faster stripes allso gonna do the interior in chequre oh and the reg is what it was given from new :)

I like it mate, can get away without bumpers on a loon, looks meaner. On a bready they just look wrong at the back without them! ha

Put the bumpers back on please!

I agree with Martin, would look a million times better with the bumpers back on.

:/they need some work doing to them....

been looking at stuff like this this is the sort of thing i think would look good its off a mg midget

Mine is 110mm down on the front and sits like this ...

120mm i think not .. Needs more lows with that plate for sure ..

Will look good with some bumpers mind ..

some more pics I've got

origanal wheels

finished wheels

when wheel bearings go wrong

home made puller to get the buggered bearing off

a quick lick off paint to tidy it up a bit

n my home made valve caps i threw together out of some old cristmass tree baubles

and some verry common polo rot

so as you can see I've done next to naff all since I've had it apart from repair it and a few bits n bobs next job is paint and the 1.6 skoda felicia transplant

i was told it was 120mm but looking at that your right I'm looking for coilies for it i was told that gaz do the best ones? what kit you used to get it that low?

what size wheels you on???

I've got a 90mm kit off Phil Jackson with lowering topcaps of 15mm and a coil chopped .

The coilies dont actually go low enougth i don think .. Custom shock and springs are the way forward but mega bucks :(

13" wheels aswell..

mines on 14s but its still defonatly as low as urs

got a problem the oil pressure warning lights falshing it was buzzing to but i gave the bash a wack n its stopped the oil pressure isnt low i dont think cos the tappets arent making any noise and the levels fine think its maybe a dodgy sensor any one know where the sensor is theres two behind the head next to each other is one of them it? allao had the clocks out and the circut board looks ok at a bit off a loss and not sure what to do next?
