Stripping her for Trax - Slag still on a diet

Eleanor's now become a slag, losing the spare wheel and rear seats only keeping in the sound system as i would die of bordom on the trip up to Silverstone without it and it doesnt weigh much

Been working since 9am this morning on the final stage of prepping Ellie ready to take a track session

Started by painting all calipers to colour code further
Then i spent a good 5 hours cleaning her until i was happy with the results so nothing less than basically spotlessly showroom clean
Managed to get a service in as well while i was at it making sure everythings tip-tip and perfect for the trip and fast approaching Trak session

Here are the stripping progress pics...













One slag! loads more pics and progress to come later

Here are the rest of the pics as promised ;)

Stripped, painted and cleaned
First set from today after she was finished...



















Still more to come (best pics that is)

Cheesy one of me taken to show the reflection (managed to look like a prick anyways :A:)
