Good day all, quite new to saxp and thought id do a wee progress thread, it may be slow but hopefully some mods in the near future.

Got my saxo last year and have done it up heaps since i bought it, looks pretty shit now but shouldve seen it last year, miracle imo. replaced lots of things, major things being the clutch, driveshaft, starter motor, slam panel, wings, full stadard exhaust, wheels.. The list is endless.

My plans are hopefully to lower it 60/70 mm, decent exhaust system, induction kit, and all the bits and bobs that will make it look respectable. Funds are short as i lost my job in february, and im only 18. So i started small today with a bit of painting. I painted the wishbones and lower chasis with weatherproof metal paint. Also painted ecu tray, and my rocker cover, and replaced both rear drums as they were cross threaded by the knob that replaced my tyres. Oh and adjusted tappets as the engine was a bit rattly, sounds brand new now.

Firstly adjusted tappets

Then painted ecu cover

Then gave the rocker cover a good sand, maybe not enough though

First coat of primer, a bit of bodge sand tbh, shouldve taken more time, ah well
