I love this thread! Coming on nice just can wait to see this fruity lump in and some video's up! :y:

Quick question Mark, how do you treat inside the boxed in sections?

Can anything be sprayed in the holes to treat any rust and prevent it?

WOW now thats a propper job! awsom,looks so fresh and clean - and no rust :)

Thanks lads, appreciate all the comments. Marks certainly done an epic job :)

I'll get a load of pictures when I pick the car up on Sunday :D

Chris - yes mate rust free is great, means I know I have a great chassis to work with from now onwards

engine in yet josh come onn get a move on...

Lol mark, we start today :) I will be back at 6 to fit satchshift and seats and harnesses then just maybe start on loom and dash :)

We were halfway through doing it, then we realised we hadnt got the bonnet to keep it covered up lol

Didnt know you had it? How long was sandys turn around time?

looks fantastic josh from face book and as we said layer it up yo

Haven't got it yet I was taking the piss out of Mark lol. Get it in 2-3 weeks :)

Picked up the car today...

Mark and Olly chatting



Olly kindly leant his services in return for Jäger :D



Sams done first layer of wax tonight



While I spent a good 3-4hours giving the cockpit a good clean and made it look somewhat like a car again





So we are now at the stage of getting ready to start on the main work to commence from tomorrow night :D

P.s if anyone has 1 standard fuel line that runs from the fuel filter through the cockpit to the bulkhead please Pm me :)

already an animal in the engine bay :P

will need another layer me thinks (minimum)

A Sam powered VTS will be quicker than a Sandy engine :p

animal for sure.

Mule to be exact :D

Looking mint jp, can't wait to see it.

When the mango is fresh and clean it looks soo good.

Still can't help think the car would look so much better withought the tints

1mulepower = 200+ bhp
unfortunately i cant see that being true lol

back to the thread..... pictures just dont do marks work any justice, gorgeous

ROLFMAYO :panic::panic::panic::panic:

Cheers Mr Gti-T, Tints make the 16year olds wet remember :cool: lol. Nah in all honesty I like them because a) It hides the cage etc from outside (giving the more standard look) & b) it adds to the mango / black contrast imo :)

looks good my pale pork pie loving friend

Standard look? Oh please! :homme:

You got to do what makes you happy.
Personally I think it's a shame hiding that sexy interiror. The cage is black so wouldn't stand out 'that' much anyway??
If you wanna make the 16yo wet just get a meg r26.r development car ;)

Lol Gav! Theres always next year for lcfc!

Its carbon wrap... honest :panic::panic: lol

True... I've always liked them and particularly now with the cage. If people get up close you can still look through but to the untrained eye they wouldn't know any different.

Haha your r26r was a beast, to this day i still don't know why you got rid of it lol

Dannys R26.R was the shit Josh! absolute beast of a car! yeah next year unless 3 wins and results go our way

Yeah, standard look......everything seems normal......BANG! CARBON/CARBON/CARBON

Also I forgot to upload This showing how marks extended the scuttle :)

Looks great josh:afro:

Gotta agree with the lads though, those tints are heinous and detract from the car if you ask me. It cheapens the look, which couldn't be further from the truth! Would look awesome with the cage visible too! You know we are right, loose them brother!:panic:

Engine bay looks Dam FINE,nice to see you Sam :) :)

What was the purpose of the scuttle modifications

The 16 yo's round my way don't dig a cage and harnesses sadly ;)

So he can run long trumpets and an air filter, and still have room behind it all!

Few goodies have arrived while i was away over Easter LOL!

A Few?!?! Half a bloody car there :p

is that carpet finally going in the bin Josh??

josh we dont want to look at a load of boxes show us the shiny bits yo
