series 1 4x4 cossy

[DANNY - PH400]

looking minted mate, am no parking anywhere near u at knock hill lol

[cutch]

I just got Rab to do the top side, I ain't going anywhere near a rotary polisher incase I mess the paint up and certainly wouldn't touch the glass either incase I did the same. I am currently underneath the car so I'm doing my own cleaning, believe me I am never doing anything else apart from that! When I had it out at Falkirk in the rain it got in some state so any help is appreciated. I don't think I will be taking it out in the rain again as what you can see is from one outing!


Cleaned up behind and stuck the new lights in






Now to get back under it!

[cutch]

Took some before pics of underneath and forgot to take the afters!

But all finished now, I don't think it's clean enough for concours so I am not entering it. Will talk to the guys at the show and see what they think.

Cars looking emense Stevie

Get it on that Concours stand mate with no aspirations of winning anything, take no pish from the purists and just enjoy it bud If for no other reason you'll get a crackin spot to park the car

It might not be the judges cup of tea but the masses will love it and I'd put 20 notes on you getting the occational dirty look from the other Concours die hards with the level of attention it gets from the general public

[cutch]

Haha you may have a point mate, you coming ?

[Stu/RS]

Car looked amazing today mate.

Don't need trophies, with the attention it was getting.

[DALSY]

yep car was getting some attention, and rightly so, was looking great

[cutch]

Thanks guys, was a laugh today, especially watchign Dalsy get out the car park!

Well the cars now at Wills, I really nned to stop talking to him! Think I have now decided to get a cut off switch, fire supression system, more power, decent gearbox and diffs. And i want to change the fuel system!


think its going to cost a wee bit though.

[cutch]

Got up nice and early for Cumbria, met the others





Drove down in the dry! The others f**ked off sharpish and left me and Dalsy!





Allys escos.





Dalsys new focus, and the others!








Got to meet up with some mates and finally see Wills 500!





Then we drove to Will Pedleys so that he can work his magic!

[Dereksjoint]

[cutch]

Yeah that would mess up the plans a bit. You coming to knockhill though?

[stevenebm]

Car is beyond stunning.perfect I.m.o s1 with cossie power doesn't get any better than that.looking forward to having a look round it at knockhill.
Try and not park next to that at show and shine as its so bloody clean!need to get ma finger out.

[Dereksjoint]

[cutch]

Will has sent me a couple of pics first ones scary!



Apparently he was checking something!


And his OCD has come out again, he rewired the fuel pump relay,



Should be more news tomorrow

[cutch]

A lot neater down there now




And apparently we are weight saving now!




Hopefully on the rollers today....

[cutch]

Right it's been a while, I have got myself a nice new Bara box, supra diff with an MK Motorsport fitting kit and a stage 2, 6deg beam, the plan is to find a decent quaife front diff and do the whole lot in one go.

Bought myself a 4x4 granada to steal the hubs off for a change in wheels, thinking about white bbs ch??

Next up is digital dash, full sensor kit, custom loom, vipec ecu, 1000cc injectors, fire ext system, bigger turbo, new inlet manifold. Cams. Battery isolator. Should bring the power up nicely!

[andy-mac]

plans sound good cutch , can't believe you nearly sold it

[cutch]

Came bloody close mate, but it's part of me and i couldnt do it so I'll have it forever!

[cutch]

The cars getting some newstuff this month. looking forward to taking it for a spin with the new running gear.


6 degree rear beam. Newly built 3.9 ratio Supra diff and fitting kit from MK motorsport. Short ratio box from Bara thats been converted to hyd clutch so it should be a much more comfortable drive.

[cutch]

My new 6 degree rear beam made by MK motorsport with supra fitting kit.








Hopefully be going on in two weeks time @ Ali's. A new supra diff with the right ration for my new Bara box. Diff has been sent to Bara for total overhaul, new seals bearings etc....
