im new at this so dont mock me

for the past 18month or so i've been working on a project or two, taken a few pics from how it started to where i am now.

as follows..

i bought a rolling shell, a 1.1 106 reg'd 1996 which had covered just 46k was clean as flip !

i then got bored of the series one image and started changing a few parts

i decided to smooth everything..

engine bay started to look dull and decided i wanted to be different

engine wise i decided on a vtr

then shortly after got bored and changed my mind again

at this point i had lack of funds and alot of stupidity and swapped my unfinished project for a saxo with a friend he painted it black as followed then scrapped it !

[/img]
i got the saxo and instantly started the strip down because it was a chav machine

i started by slamming the cow

and a few other little things

it needed alsorts so bought a doner car once finished it took a beating

smoothed out fogs

at this point i thought it was in a position to go through an mot and i could get it out and turn some heads, but with it being a conversion i had the fan wired to a separate switch which the mot tester forgot and decided to let the engine boil with the results being..

which lead to another engine

shortly later i was bored again with its exterior image and done something different

low enough ?

i then decided i needed the rear end smoothing abit and everyone knows smoothing a saxo boot is ugly as flip so mixed it up a little with abit of custom

i have to say i liked the 106 when it was black and purple and the end result of the saxo! how comes you put a 106 boot on it? was it alot of work to do?

Bedford126 · 14th September 2012, 21:32

I do like the 106 boot better than the saxo boot. Hell of a lot of work with the back panel just for looks though.

What did your MOT tester do when he killed your engine?

rich112 · 15th September 2012, 10:42

Some great work there mate. I would of gone crazy with that MOT tester, but then again why did you not have the fan wired on with the temp sensor?

as long as i keep an eye on the temperature its fine, i just done a quick job for mot, mainly because it gives me control and lets this happen..
