Just thought I may as well through one of these up.

Probably won't be many updates for this but hey, it is what it is haha.

I've got a 1.3 spi coupe I picked up of a very lovely 96 year old man. Who wanted to give me it for free but I gave him a bit of money. It has FSH and about 70k miles with 2 previous owners. It's in Alpine white and in fairly good nick. Just replaced clutch cable as well.

Just replaced the brake cylinders.

There were fucked, the drum brake pads were basically new cause they hadn't been used.

You finally got a build thread up then mate. You could have cleaned it, or at least payed me to do it :-p Looks almost exactly like mine the day i got it, being the same colour and my old wheels with standard height.

Hahaha it's just a few pictures from outside work. I cleaned it yesterday. Haha I know, I really Like those wheels especially for standard height. Think they look good, especially with the balloon tyres haha. Not gonna be like this for long. Got a set of minilites to put on ;)

Finally got my minilites wrapped up in Pirelli p700, took to long to sort out. Such a pain in the arse

Looks nice man, how much you lowered her by? :)

  • Author

Don't have a clue. Haha like 60 on front and back 60 aswell I think. But can go a lot lower

I would almost be inclined to raise the rear up a little to match the front.

Looks good, the wheels might be a little lost in those arches though.

It's a real awkward camera angle. I'll get a side on picture to sure you that they are the same. I think the minilites look real sweet. I was debating getting them powder coated black but think I may leave them white now

You were at the bottom of my road today turning around, car looked sweet man.

  • Author

Hahah yeah, I thought I saw yours. Cheers bud.

Someone please tell me this is meant to be there 0293538b.jpg

At rear right of window

I think that's the mounting point for the wipers on LHD cars so nothing is meant to be there.

I'm pretty sure that's for the wiper arm if the car was left hand drive

Yeah, it ain't a dent don't worry!

You could always do a triple wiper conversion. :lol:

  • Author

I thought it was. I just never remember it being that obvious. I shouldn't of polished it ahha. It's so annoying now, all I can look at

Saw you again this morning, stalking my road again...? :lol:

  • Author

Hahaah not quite. My nan lives round the corner haha. I didn't see you, I saw the car though. Looks sweet especially with the D90's
