This is still going...

Few updates coming over next few days.

One thing will be a new exterior look with no more wrap!

When's this coming back on the road ? I'm quite excited to see what it will look like even if I don't agree on your new colour choice. :tongue:

Got the engine back in then managed to brake a stud so had to fix that....

Forgot to take bonnet so had to drive it back to my garage like this....

IMAG3158_zps3e0585ff.jpg

Since then still had some bits to do... Stole some jets so now makes many bwaarps.

Managed to get hold of a small to big spline adapter and threw on coupe s steering wheel. The rudeboy racecar rev counter was also a recent addition.

A While ago picked up these 13" Mini G60 style steels so these have been thrown on aswell but may be up for sale soon!

Got Snapped at a weekly meet in Luton

IMG_20140502_090956_zpsbngyxxng.jpg

Pestered Oli stevens to allow me to buy his saloon so i can reshell the breadvan and either break or scrap it Unfortunatley!!

Justified it to the misses as the saloons a bit more family friendly!

IMAG3720_zpsdmgp9zc6.jpg

Got The saloon Home

IMAG3765_zpspcsgvklf.jpg

Some More Pikey Mechanics....

IMG_20140607_204337_zpsvffg1dv8.jpg

Then Stripped the front down ready to respray the Engine bay as had some rust spots and wanted it to be a different colour

IMG_20140608_201234_zpscbkdc6iw.jpg

Found More rust than i was expecting. Luckily just surface rust so far.

IMAG3775_zpsdxchbraf.jpg

treated the surface rust i found

IMG_20140607_204703_zpsksesisxb.jpg

Wanted to see if i even liked the colour i chose for the engine bay, was a bit impatient and just threw on a layer of primer and paint to see!

IMG_20140608_200843_zpso9ievs5h.jpg

Aiming to have it complete ready for the polo show bit think its going to be a bit tooo tight! So the breadvan will probably come!
