Pulled this off Facebook lol, more pics after I get back from GF's and download the DSLR !



Sorry it wasn't FCS this year, but I reckon I represented my mates body shop pretty well with best paint & body of show! :)

Not really my thing, but i must say it looks good. There has been alot of work put into this, defo worth the award mate

Was nice meeting you today!

Was nice meeting you too man, cool pic too! :P

Moar from YMS 2010!




























900BHP and it costs this guy 75p to drive a mile!


Obligatory self whoring.







Oh hi.




:afro:

shouldnt of smotthed the grill out imo spoil the front ed right up.

Each to their own mate, I like 'em smooth. ;)

car is spot on. love it.

looks like some expensive motors at that show!

one thing. take the wipers off if the suns out :)

smoothed front is the way forward ;) loving the colour very different

Car Looks lush now mate, got anything else you want to do to it.

Thanks for the comments!

Errrm, hmmm I want to bring the front down 10mm and get the inside flocked, possibly false floor because the rear bench really is there for no reason lol.

On another note I'm 23 this year and the no claims are building, I would love an RX7 with hellaflush fitment lol :P (they're pretty cheap for their power and look hawt) but I might be going into an apprenticeship with a family member, which would mean a large pay cut... so I'll probably stay with this for a good while yet! :D

Looks amazing mate, you should definatly retrim the full interior with leather. Mabey work your fibreglass magic on redesigning the interior?

What did you do with your first set of wheels?

now thats awesome

Such a beautiful car! A lot of hard works gone into this, so worth it! For me, to top it off would be smoke the lights other than that its perfect :y:

This is just porn tbh!

sickk pictures mate love it

Car looks awesome mate!

Only thing, what's going on with the gap between the bonnet and bumper???

I think it's for air flow because there's no grill.

Joe is correct, the grill was welded up then the whole lot was rolled up about an inch.

Thanks for all the comments. :D

Have to side with the crowd, bonnet looked so much better before.

But still an amazing and iconic car.

thats awsome

Cars lush mate :)

Having done that, I'm selling up for something with a bit more umph for next year.

Car is For Sale £2500 o.n.o



E-mail is: james@pebbles.eclipse.co.uk

personally I would would replace the ply on the bottom with a nice piece of oak sand the hell out the rest of it and wood stain it to match the oak then get your mate to clear coat the whole lot. The wood would look amazing against the brown mate.

£2500 for a car of this standard is a proper bargain the paint alone is worth more than that Good luck with the sale.

Cheers :)
