Pink 106 gti restoration/track build
This is how she looked after I collected her
1998 Peugeot 106 GTI 1.6 16v
Bought her for the grand sum of £500 and she is to be turned into a track toy although due to finances its going to be a bit of a long term project/restoration.
Earlier on this year I bought a new house so now I have a nice big area to work on and learn about the car.

Yeah thats right bought it a week or so ago.

Im pretty sure its the alt. Belt as the batt light occasionally comes on the dash. Mango_wes has got a new one for me to fit

Im way past the colour to the point I even like it. Just need to get it motorsport stickered up and no one will even notice the pink!
I know literally bugger all about cars which is why this project is so fun as im learning step by step.
I've managed to strip most of the inside without breaking anything so so far so good.
Pics will follow pending on me getting the laptop back from her majesty lol

First thing was to lose the krap from the car:
Now just need a black cambelt cover
My little bro is loving helping me work on the car
An hour or so later looked like this....
Gave up after we removed the seats and saw the carpet would need a stanley knife to get it out easily.

Set to work on the doorcards tonight. Not as a simple job as this few kilo lump of krap was stuck inside the door....
One door done (till maybe motor and wires come out)

The sound deadening wool stuff was wet inside the reat doorcard area.
Was expecting a car full of rust after seeing this:
Yes thats the tyre you can see through the hole! Light area was getting soaked!
Feared the worst after seeing this:
Got it off with a wallpaper scraper (excellent done in few mins)
Turns out ita pretty minor and no holes

Short term plans are to tidy her up a bit and get the interior stripped out and tidy. Same for the engine bay basically do all the free stuff as we have xmas round the corner.
Longer term it needs the suspension raising by A LOT which should be good fun as I've never even attempted anything so ambitious but with a nice shed and huge carport it would be foolish for me to pay someone to do it.
After that its getting the wheels and tyres sorted. I really like the wheels but they have a lot of weights on them which makes me think something must be wrong with them?
Next will be the brakes. Now I want them to be really really good as my engine is going to stay standard till it dies so unsure to stay with standard discs and good pads or go for a bugger setup. Thing is I plan to get the car very very light so not sure I need more. I want it to be as well braked as my Twingo really.
Cage will come next and all the little bits like linkages etc etc.
Would like it done for summer but thats way to ambitious. I'd say summer after will probably be more likely.

Bonnet raiser gone...
Was hoping for an alley bit of kit to sell, but turns out they were just some hard plastic spacer type bodge job things! Oh wells looks better now I think.
All doorcards removed now. Haven't taken out window mechanisms yet as not sure how hard perspex windows are to fit and if they are too much of a pita?
Tucked up for bed (with clifford alarm flashing away and beeping at anything that goes near it)
