The engines the only thing worth saving tbh, and tbh with the way thats been driven and the amount of times its lost oil it would benefit from a rebuild, the shell is so past it its fit for scrap.

And considering his age and the way he drives his cars I wouldnt give it long before its wrapped around a tree

UPDATE 8/4/09

Right Ive spent the last few days refurbing the wheels, as they hadnt come out that well before, and looked very creamy, so went for Vauxhall Glacier White and its come out a treat.


Then the skirts turned up courtesy of J200RSA, Thanks Mate


Trail fitted, they fit really well for replica's


Painted and fitted


Then the -90mm springs turned up, took about 10 mins to fit them.


Considering its got nothing in the back it does sit pretty low.



And then the Morettes turned up, already in black, so just had a play with the wiring and they went straight on.










And thats how it looks today, next on my list is a new Gsi Bumper with all the bits, a Steinmetz Grill and a Steinmetz Rear Bumper

Cheers Shaun, gonna be a while yet, just gathering everything I need first, and just get it ready for a respray most likely later this year, then onto getting it ready for a LET.

marklawton - Cheers Mate, exhaust came from the scrappy for £15, I wasn't going to bother changing it, but wasn't a fan of the DTM style on on there before.

Yea it does look like N90ATH's old one, But Im planning a few touches that should change it from his.

Turned up, painted, straight on lol
They're only in aerosol at the minute, will be painted proper when it goes off to the bodyshop.

Not much of an update really, the rear end underneath the car I checked over and had missed a few bits of surface rust, so treated it and the back end now has a layer of red oxide primer, black hammerite and waxoyl to keep it protected for a few years yet.

MOT runs out tomorrow and tax at the end of the month, so its tucked back in the garage again.

Next step is finding a Steinmetz rear bumper, and a front bumper.

The cars ready for a gsi front as the fogs are wired up now, but keep looking at the rieger fronts, and the post 97 with steinmetz splitter.

More updates soon...
