[Rickyb]

the plan upto now is to get her in the garage and get the body cleaned up it might even get a quick flick to get rid of all the sh!ty glossed over bits. then shes getting lowerd and getting my sr steelies on etc then she wants an mot next month so its going for that. comments and crit welcome.
Rick

[L33 LEG]

Looks decent enough mate :) plans sound good, keep it simple and clean and you can't go wrong. Hopefully the mot won't show up any nasty surprises!

[turbojolt]

who spent ages cleaning a washer bottle and nothing else in the bay lol

[L33 LEG]

Is that water bottle behind the seat for the car? lol

[Rickyb]

Yeah shes not so bad i think the washer and alternater are both new lol i know it wants 2 small plates but im gonna get it on the ramp see what i can find lol il keep yous updated

[Benn]

Will be nice with a bit love...

[Rickyb]

I totally forgot about this thread ive not done a bean to her yet but i did go out and started her up the other day when it was minus 4 outside shr started fine lol but now shes stuck untill i get my garage base done as i parked this and an astra in the wrong place pics tomoz

[Rickyb]

ive been thinking the last week or so of selling this on as theres no major plans for her and i couldnt get excited about this one as i did the other but ive now become sane again as shes shirly the sh!tter (the last owner named not me) and id be daft not to use it even if it is only till the tax is out, so the next free(ish) day i have il be dragging her out and starting work.
now i know white sri's had blue/grey trim but how would red/grey sri trim look do we think? as ive got a full red/grey trim just sat in my shed ??????
Rick

[L33 LEG]

Red trim would look better than blue, get it fitted!

[maddogdaz666]

I think the red would look great against the white bodywork.

[Rickyb]

mr leg where have you been sir? i posted twice last week and no reply i was just about to send a search party out thank god your ok.
anyway yeah i thought that red would look best and if i paint the car and replace all the pin stripes and stuff with red itd stand out like.
cheers for the comment buddy

[L33 LEG]

lol Sorry mate been busy at home. Red would look really nice. Get it on the road and come in it to mine when you finally get those seats ha.

[Rickyb]

It should be on the road in a few weeks and im not sure about driving it to yours though comfy golf tdi or not as comfy no power nova lol we'l see

[L33 LEG]

Don't make excuses lol I expect to see that nova, be good to see it with my white nova.

[Rickyb]

oh youl see it for defo as i want to go to the NW meet in it.
Rick

[Rickyb]

Small update i spent most of good friday building little bridges so i could safely get it out of my back yard without messing my concrete kevels out.
Then i dug my red sri trim out gave it a quick spruce and fitted it but due to having too much fun i forgot to take progress pics but i do have after pics tho. Here they are.
