liam-westcoast's project - update and pics - #263
 

hi

the westcoast has been moved to one side for now

as i just bought this off maxamus for £140:y: bargain (cheers mate) and it arrived today, all it needs is a new batterey which i just fitted and new brakes

it is only on 69,000 miles at the minute and it has a rage exhaust which is very loud, and some nice 3 stud wheels.

i have a few plans for it also after i have finished with it i will be most likely selling it on

sorry for poor pics

the westy looking sad lol











any comments and what you tink i could do with it please

liam

i can also try and get a video of the exhaust

3 spoaks, nice, aint seen them since 1996

get rid of the back box and wheels (sell them to the natural history museam)
and would be a nice car, cheep to, good buy liam

the wheels acctually look quite nice mate

i might have to get a video of the exhaust

good value.

but that bumper cut and exhaust are utterly discusting. sorry

yeah i know mate the exhaust and bumper were not done great at all but i like the sound of the exhaust lol

good value......:y::p

strip it,stick the westie engine in lol

whats happning wth the westie??

cheers mate, it was a bargain especially with milage

i was using the westie engine for another project but the car sold, so i will break the westie engine and sell, and hopefully for the westie put a vtr in it and cam and stuff

no stripping it is for another project in a year or 2 (vts:y:)

nice one,well a nice tip to freshn up the spi engine

mpi roker cover,i smoothed the badge recess off mine aswell



iv still got a shit load of 106/saxo bits if you need anything,also just broke a mint 2001 1.4 engine from a quiksilver,still got everything bar the bottom end,loom and ecu

that looks nice i might have to do that on my westcoast

:( sad to see her go bt i see its gone to a good home :y:

as for the bumper i know its bad but hey i was young :P and the garage i took it to screwed it up :P

Enjoy liam :y:

i will enjoy and it looks really clean aswell for the amzing price

and thanks for it aswell mate

update

i found some ford graphite grey spray paint in my room today so i decided i might aswell spray my rear badges so here are some pics

ther quite poor pics







and one of the wheeels

Looks good mate :-) you gonna do the "sx" badge same color or remove?

i will see today but most probaly remove it

Good buy by the looks of it Liam.
If you were looking to sell it on, just buy some cheap steel wheels and hub caps, standard exhaust and new rear bumper imo. Should interest a few people that way

yeah cheers andy, i might keep the wheels as they are not to bad but i will most probaly put the standard exhaust on and a new rear bumper

update

did a little bit more spraying today

so far i have sprayed the air vents and speaker grille covers

pics







tommorow i will be unmeshing the grille

takes me back to when i got my flatty :P

lol i think the flatarches acctually look so nice

*goes and takes the arches of the westcoast*

they do if there done nicely. subtly, but nicely. its just a shame there so slow!

yeah i agree there are some nice examples out there

not to drop any names in byt **cough** mine before i turned it into a cardiff taxi lookalike/VT? **cough** lol

ill be keeping an eye on this one to see what goes down :P

yeaah yours did look very nice, but looks very nice now

there won't be to much with this one at the moment really

thanks ;)
yeah, seems sensible. think i missed it while i was in hospital or just confused but whats wrong with your westy?

well at the moment this car i bought just to fix and make some money off and add then add 15bhp more to the westcoast once i have sold this:y:

but yeah it aint to bad looking to spray the slam panel and engine bay and while the engine is out possibly cam it aswell, and then decide on painting my engine bay and rocker either blue, yellow or dark grey.

and then thinking of selling nagels and having smoked standards

but thanks for thinking about my westy

lol, well the chop you did of it was awesome, so wanted to know if it had been a victim of the recession, or just on hold.

ill keep en eye on both then lol

lol, well the reccession wont affect me for a couple of years as i still have years left of school lol, what front lights you getting for yours

well definatly keep an eye on both i just started the 1.1 and now i think i have gone death lol, it is so loud

death of deaf?
oh i didnt know you were still at school! im a bit slow these days lol
im looking for black angels, but i might just smoke mine, think it would look good, especially if i can get a new front bumper and put smoked fogs in them.

lol deaf,
yeah i am only 15 so recession don't really affect me, but yeah smoking the standard ones will look good

i still don't know what to do with mine i might ask £50 or £60 for them and some standards my way

you got them off mark didnt you? i was considering buying them off him, but didnt in the end. not sure, there is just something about them that bugs me!

only 15?! why have you got 2 cars then! lol

yeah i got them off mark as he is bassically right next to me which is allright, but i think they look really good with a standard bonnet but with a badboy bonnet smoked ftw

yep only 15 last month, but i have always wanted saxos and it is something to do while looking for a vtr engine, but i might be geting one of mark

here is a quick video of the exhaust it don't sound to great on the video though or that loud tbh but here it is

doesnt sound too bad actually, nice and throaty lol

yeah lol it aint to bad abit rattly at the moment though

just about to put the grille back together aswell

i wouldnt worry about it being rattly. mine is welded on cus its a magnex and im sure its still blowing.

i have not reall looked how mine is held on probaly bluetac or something lol

haha that zorst is a beast lol :D

cheers mate it is quite beasty

ahaha man i loved that exhaust, really needs to be heard in person to get the full effect. nice video none the less. :D
