Few more goodies came today



Slimline 12" fan
3 more rolls of tesa tape
5m of 3mm silicon vac line
8mm ring terminals
Distribution block
2 x 6 pin connectors
2 sidelight bulb holders
Pair of stud type battery terminals

Nearly at the end of the cheap little bits

Bit of good news tonight, popped to the lock up to drop the manifold off the engine, it's a 30 minute job but involves removing the charger and engine mount.

I was told the engine was fitted with stage 4 charger but i was also told everything bar seats and cards were there to build it haha

So popped the charger off and took the outlet off



Looks brand new, looked at the charger and is indeed a stage 4 by jabba, is also brand new rebuild never run





Still got assembly grease in there



Took some pics of the 14" bbs ra with new tyres popped them on ebay for £120 and by the time i got out the bath they'd sold

Few more bits to the puzzle

4 cans of vht wrinkle black



Pair of indicators, few more polished stainless bolts, silicon pipe blanks and boot card clips



Also went and took the bbs i sold off



And popped the eltanins on

Just realised there was no bay shot  

Todays deliveries



4AWG cable x 5m



Battery terminal covers



Something to drown out that old not moved for 9 years smell



New hose joiner vs old

New deliveries every day  Happy Days

Haha, payday money is almost gone

Should salvage some parts off the gold one tomorrow

Unfortunaly soon it'll only be the big stuff left, bumpers, wheels, carpets, seats, radiator / intercooler, boost pipes, pedal box, brake lines and 100 and one other things haha

Great work Olly. Looking forward to seeing this tomorrow  

Cheers Rich, yea only the mrs seen it so far

Cheeky bit of morning bidding, picked a bad time to end listing



Lets hope he doesn't pull out

Very nice looking seats. Are they RS recaros?

Got a set from a Puma to go in mine  

Matt

Thanks Matt, yea RS recaros

Well been a long day, started like this



Stripped it to it's bare bones, just interior loom left

These are the goodies i'm keeping for myself

Full set of coils with recent top mounts



Omp leightweight stainless system





New tank, filler neck, breather valve and pipes



Lots of little bits you don't think of too, so all in all a good day

You've had a good day by the looks of it mate, absolute bargain on the seats

Happy days

Andy.

Thanks Andy, it was a real shame about the shell, the was no rot whatso ever. 1 or 2 crusty bits but nothing rusted out. If i had more time i'd have cut it up so others could use bits.

Olly

Time and space is always the issue with cars mate.

Had to collect it, strip it and scrap it in one day

Time, space and money    

True story Matt  

Been quite a good day, got a few bits done

First was the 4 branch



Supercharger bracket required a little off



But got it on in the end



I will need to move runner 2 in slightly as it'll be in the way of my new outlet when i make it



Found this in the shed



And salvaged the cup from the gold one yesterday so popped it on



Gave the omp system a wipe over



And popped it on



Next was the coils and brakes



Popped the wing off for some adjustments



To find the lip had been rolled and sealed



Passenger side before and after





Rears on too



While i was under there seemed to have been coated everywhere with something



And again rear arch have been rolled, smoothed and sealed





Back on it's wheels



Started on some more loom but after couple of hours downed tools and called it a day

Hi mate. Would you be interested in selling your chrome grille? 07954 373764

Loving your build chap, makes me wonder if I should have gone G40 instead of G60 due to the extra room lol

Where did you find your OMP group A Inox exhaust!!! I've been on the hunt with no joy

I want that rally rasp sound
