I dont usually advise removing the rear seats,unless you never use them,but that mis-matched interior combined with white shell and sports seats is just crying out for the race car interior. The dash,a sports steering wheel and those seats are all you need in there. Maybe a tidy up with some gloss white - and that's all id be spraying on the outside,aswell.

Get a theme going on.

You've got blue in the seats,so surely a blue/white check roof would be better? Plain white body otherwise,it'll look clean. Maybe a blue rollcage if funds allow.

Nice wheels! Least common of the ATS's,might be worth something. If you keep them,blue centres with polished rim would put the cherry on the top :thumbsup:

cheers for the reply buddy!

rear seats wont be used cause the fronts are broke so dont lean forward.

I'm quite lucky really as my brother is a professional car sprayer, so itll cost me trade paint and a bud to paint it.

the seats, I'm hoping, are getting recovered plain black, my mates mums looking into it, (she makes dresses, recovers chairs etc).

I'm hoping to follow a black and white theme, so was thinking of a black cage, black carpets, and black paint where interior is currently white, just so it looks clean!

;ittle update ;)

You KNOW you need to do that tailgate thing :wink:

indeed i do!

hopefully my bro can do it at christmas. fingers crossed hell pay for it too :p

please dont paint it matte white, you'll never keep it clean. alpine white all the way mate.

i'm going for the black and white theme aswell, imo a debadged single light grille will look better than a twin light.

i colour coded a load of bits alpine white aswell, mirrors, glovebox, ashtray and clock surround, looks pretty mint.

tidy up that rotten bay aswell, no one likes a rusty rocker!!

you gonna be gong to any bluewater meets be nice to see her in the flesh.

cheers for the comment fella ;)

tbh i dont want it clean, I've got a kinda rat twist going so dirt is a plus :D
