at the prev owners house, a dealer


me and my dad went to view. it was a bit of a steal. only fault was no serivice history (got lost at a garage) but not too worry contacted a prev owner and got alot of detail.

had irmy exhaust, pedals, gearknob. low mileage alloys and clear lights (now sold)

cost £1700

home:



got some ice blue sidelights


prefered the led blues


got some 6x9s so that it had some speakers


interior


clear lights

wasnt keen on them myself

so got these (few tilted ones now




rub strips off







new dials





borrowed sub and amp etc





bonnet lifters







start of bootbuild



now i am trying to get a set of morretes and save to lower it 60mm

then i need to sort some ICE bits cus half of it is borrowed and front speakers are a bit gash

and steering wheel

also needs a good valet haha.

and i will get new alloys sometime too. and then eventually i might get some bits sprayed and get skirts

you can get it steam cleaned at a car wash, will only cost £3 or summit but you have to be careful and leave the car running while your doing it.

Or you can buy some degreasers from your local motor factors, Auto Glym do an engine and machine cleaner.
