The interiour in this car is the worst looks at the drain pipe 90 bends for the air vents the shitty red baggy leather work and shit carbon bit, the picture with him fucking about with the center console look at the door cars behind his head, bubbles and it's peeling away,
Says he cut the end of his finger off building it, looks like he trimmed the dash over the top of the end of his finger and half his tools it's that rough

It all looks pretty terrible tbh, but fair play to him for having a go, making it from scratch.

You can see the flux and oxidation around the welds on the first page. Pigeon shit is a good way to describe them, that car will fall apart in seconds!

This is kind of how I imagined JohnDBoosh's Imp project to turn out before he shelved it.

I also doubt 90% of the people in this thread could build the engine - let alone the whole car.... Fair play for having a go - it turned out a bit wank but bet he learned loads

Those people listen to that little voice in their heads that says "I can't do this" That bloke maybe should have done the same.

If he could weld - and had got the interior done properly - it would be pretty cool

Bad times when the shoddy door trimming is so obvious it can't even pass the 20ft rule in a photo

How would anyone think trimming your car so it looks like draped curtains cam possibly look good. Saying that iv seen corsas with old leather seats from calibras and cavaliers that don't look much better
