We started with a sun roof! Now there aint one! We made the boot flat aswell rather than having the wheel well. Should be ready for paint next week when all the final works been done.

Thanks, it really wasnt when I started!!

[Angus Closier]

Should start a wip next few weeks when I get the shell back.

looking good pal, as said start a WIP. Whats the plans for the car??

[Angus Closier]

Well its going to be a slow build mate. Im only at college so not made of money! Going to be a high spec c20xe track car when its finished. Just slowly collecting money for the engine rebuild!

Shell looking good,
Ripe for a Wip thread

[mk1nova_rich]

nice one, out of curiousity whats that frame for?? (from top of dash down to near gear lever)

[Angus Closier]

AS said the shell was far from good to start with, still needs work! Well i wont be running a dash at all in it so i made that frame out of tiny box section which weighs nothing and iv folded sheet over it so I can mount things onto it...gauges/fuesbox/ecu/switchs and before anyone asks there is space for my hand between the gearstick and the frame in every gear!

[mk1nova_rich]

thought so, you using ally sheet or plastic?? really looking forward to a WIP as i love builds biased towards track or motorsport use

[Angus Closier]

The sheet is actually part of the door skin from a sII landrover, only using it because it really doesnt weigh much!! The frame and sheet can be picked up with your little finger! Yeh il get a wip going when I have more time and money. It will be one of the slower builds but it should be done this time next year!

[mk1nova_rich]

dont worry about how long it takes, take your time and dont cut corners. I kept setting myself deadlines to finish mine but in the end i just decided it would be ready when it was ready. Plus problems will crop up and there is always more to do than you think. Ideally i would love to start my build again with a proper plan as i ended up fitting stuff then having to take it back out etc. Good luck :thumb:

[Angus Closier]

Yeh thanks mate, dont worry Iv been at it 2 years and im not cutting corners!! Just very skint and trying to find myself a unit etc aged 17 its not easy! Im taking it slowly so everything is done how I want it! Il get a wip going later on in the week! Thanks for the support!

[mk1nova_rich]
