Re: The overall plan
Well well well... Im sure you're all wondering whats happened to this project as its stopped more times than a taxi driver around london at rush hour...
Unfortunately the better half had been made unemployed meaning I was funding our living as opposed to the car
Now she has a new job I can start again 
Now a lot of you will be pleased as I have been in contact with a vinyl supplier and got a great quote. They will hopefully be fitting the vinyls week after next
Cant wait!

Re: The overall plan
well in addition to my earlier post I thought Id go out and tidy up the garage as it was in a state...

Car out grabbing a bit of sunshine...

A little on the warm side

And after...

Also as the vinyls will be getting added soon, I thought id remove the handles so theres a nice smooth join...

And away for the day

I will be designing the spoiler stands later in order to get them laser cut.
Really back in the mood now!

Re: The overall plan
well it seems that once I started I just couldn't stop! I have managed to get my spoiler stands designed ready for going out to quote. First off a wooden prototype...



And now a full on decided design

This is designed to look like the spoiler stands which the DTM car used. Will look nice powdercoated / painted in white

Re: The overall plan
Well this is the update a lot of you have been waiting for...
today is vinyl day!
A 7am start (after staying up until 3am playing poker) was in order and the guys from the local sign writers turned up as promised... I will let the pictures tell the story here as there are a lot of them!

Re: The overall plan
Well a couple of updates...
Interior light arrived yesterday so that was fitted...

Still need a centre console!

The bloke from the sign writers was back yesterday fixing the arch and it looks a lot better now

And some more photos after turning the car around






I think it needs the sunstrip in order to break up the front of the car and the proper "Baumlers" plates for shows.
My 7 year old newphew has had leukemia for a few years now and yesterday we found out it was terminal. I am going to get this finished so he can get to have a go in the time he has left.
