Just been directed to this site from a guy on C-Sidecruisers; which is a cruise site based in and around Southampton - where Im currently living ( as a dirty lay about student)

Im from the Staffordshire Moorlands usually, 2 mins from Alton Towers in the middle of nowhere -

more importantly heres my car
Shes currently about to have a make over - so these are the shots as she was upto a few weeks ago

at Donny 2004

and some of the previous work done

twin headlamps, wide arches, smooth wings, smooth bonent, smoothe mirrors, removed and flush drivers door handle(passengers already done) also want to do roof rails if I get time and enough Lead to fill them.
then The two tone paint job - keeping the top half Ford Diamond White as it is now and a candy paint on the bottom

The over summer - I want a new exhaust system (Ive picked up sponsership off a company in North Wales) Im deciding wether to have another sebring on the other side ( ie twin exit) or have side exit exhaust - exiting through the currently meshed section at the back of the side skirts

Got about Â£2500 worth of ICE sat in my bedroom to go in and a few other bits

But Im in limbo as to wetehr or not to finish it now - as I fancy somethng quicker and its either engine converison for this - or new car (which will be easier and more reliable)

that\'s the same front as i have, i see yours has had a gap filled in, looks good. I\'m having mine played around with as well, but its all top secret at the mo

its a nice car mate, really smooth. where did you get the plate that goes round the tow-ring from? i hadn\'t given that bit much thought

17s in the top pics yeah

15s whilst it was at the bodyshop

Towing hook cover - Made it myself - Im in the process of setting up a 5000sq ft fibreglass and carbon composites workshop - weve got autoclave, full extraction system etc etc - not just for cars but boats, bikes, anything - weve even made a set of one off windows for a factory thats been converted into a house

I milled it from 4mm aluminium -its got a thinner alu plate on the back - all rebated and riveted together

As for ur top secret plans what are they - Im having the arch run lines extended to match the new wide arches, Im tempted to have the side vents rmoved as well - want to go as smooth as I can - its a confused car - should ideally be jap ott - but wnat t o try somethig different

when is it - cars about to reach a stage of no return - at the moment its only prepped so I can return it to the stage above easily - once easter comes - the cars changing for good

cant tell you too much at the mo, when the cars in primer i\'ll post photos tho. that way i know that its nearly done... might have a fastcar shoot lined up when it comes out. the bloke thats doing it sprayed paz\'s scooby. its got custom archs and bodykit, when i see that orange and black corsa on total vauxhalls front cover the other month, i wasnt happy as that was what id planned quite a while back, put it that way.

i used to do milling and turning, dont have access to machine shop anymore tho, got a mate who can make me one... just thought if uve bought it id get one as well

im sure our cars will be different enough despite being a bit like minded, im keeping those side vents

would say welcome, but dont feel ive been here long enough
