Looking good wingnuttzz, looking good .

That looks very smart wingnutz. 👍

Tbh if I could get a factory fresh finish then that would be great but I'm not going to get that in my garage, on my own with limited tools! Lol dreamer really. The arches are in very good condition. I took a video of the arch I was doing and you can see all inside the arch and there is no rust whatsoever!! For a 12 year old car that has done nearly 100,000 miles and 6 years in the uk is very good. Quite happy with that really.

Fitted it this afternoon seems very good. Any ideas how you change the illumination colour of it? Had a play about and cant work out how to do it!

keep pressed the big volume knob for a 2-3 secs. There should be an illumination option

Done this a couple of weekend ago and didn't have time to post. Fitted 20mm spacers to the teg and polished it with autobrite pearl wax.









I had my eg on the spits to do the underside ready to be seam welded. Removed all the old sealer and paint. I would like to know now much weight this has removed.



From this



Too this. Heated up the underseal and pulled it off like a wash leather







Sorry for loads of pics haha

 

[Wingnuttzz]

Fantastic work with the EG, wish I had the space and equipment to be able to do that.

Whats the plan, K-Swap the DC5 engine into it

 

[jambo]

K swap, all the engine and parts are here for that. 300mm 2 piece discs etc. Just going to be a track toy. Can't wait to get it painted
