Are you going to use hubcaps on those wheels?

[Wills21]

I might just use a small set of center caps not really sure yet, I'll see what they're like on the car, dying to get them on :)

[Wills21]

Jesus I haven't updated this is ages! Progress has been pretty slow, I've just been gathering bits n pieces for it the last 6 months

This is how it Sat about a month ago, it has since gone for paint and should be back in the next few weeks




It got new front floor panels both sides, new inner and outer sills both sides, and a new wing / A panel

Here's some of the bits I have, I have a 6 point roll cage that I'm getting flocked aswell

Centre locks with new water temp and oil pressure gauge


Spax lowered shocks, damper adjustable


Polycarbonate windows


Single seater mirrors


Three point harnesses
3/4" spacers with extended studs
Braided oil pressure feed
New wheel nuts
Coolant temperature sensor




And the boring stuff that I've no pictures of

New rear lights
New door handles/boot handle
All new window rubbers
New windscreen
New indicators/headlamp rings
New door seals

looking sweet mate! one thing i might suggest while the cars not done yet is fitting the most expensive set of bearings you can find all round. its what im planning on doing. the steelies and spacers combined will wage war on the bearings haha

I've thought about that actually, it's not going to be driven much to be honest so I'll see how long they last, not a major job to change them anyway.

Here's my daily actually, some of you guys might appreciate it

[Chris1992]

that looks sick as balls!

[Wills21]

Front arches fitted, it's going to be low :)

I love this car! The standard city centre caps will look the nuts IMO, they are just wide steels without them, the caps will make it look properly caricature

[Wills21]

Thanks guys! Absolutely dying to see it painted

[Wills21]

He sent me some pictures there earlier, I'm not 100% happy with the bottom lip on the back, he's going to have aanother look at it tomorrow see what he can do

[Wills21]

Nearly there now! One of the doors reacted badly to the paint so that has to be done again!

[Steve G]

Shame about the door but the rest of the paint look great. I think I am going to have to get some 12" wheels done for my Scamp now I have seen these.

Looking forward to seeing how the rest of it takes shape.
