DJRoberts/DannyR Ph1 172 Supercharged Fast Road/Track ****

[Tom@JMS]

Lovely biscuits. Not a fan of heat wrapping. Seems the perfect wick if you ask me.

i rippled my roof slightly too getting off the tar, worst part was burning the paint slightly though. i got away with just having it sprayed. carbon FTMFW, talking about £1k for that

 

[DannyR]

1k? Try halving that and then some more

 

[WILLIE]

Blimin' heck, since the last Ipswich meet it's changed a lot and that was only last month lol. Keep up the hard work mate.

I should pay more attention to threads like these :dapprove:

 

[OLR]

Really less than 1k. I think I ask about this before and some guy did it for a mk1 and it was about £1k. Would look total sex though

Its been silver/black/lunar grey in the space of a month haha!

It won't be a thing I have straight away but itll be in the pipeline now the roof is bent!

 

[DannyR]

Made a lot of progress tonight. Cut off a few bits of excess metal from the inside, and prepped the whole inside and masked up ready for paint tomorrow! Getting excited now as once the inside is done everything can then be put back into the car and the box of new bits is getting bigger!

Few pics from tonight, not in order!

 

[adam172]

sorry if you have already said but what colour are you doing the interior? good progress with this its moving along fast!!

 

[Gray]

I wish my Clio was a second car....

Top work Danny, will be awesome once finished!!

 

[AlexG]

Lunar, carbon, supercharger. Phwoar!!!!!!!!

 

[DannyR]

Just a couple pics of how it stands after today

 

[oliver.james]

Looks great so far!

 

[adam172]

looking good nice choice of colour for the interior

 

[hughesclio]

looks nice good luck with putting it back together, plenty of swearing and cut fingers lol
will be worth it in the end though

 

[Nafoff]

very nice

 

[DannoTheGreat]

Sweet!

 

[Ben_Stevo172]

Are you painting the outside Danny?

 

[DannyR]

Not alot to go back inside

Are you painting the outside Danny?

Yea, the paint for the shuts/doors/boot came today so can do the inside of those now! Outside will be getting done, but will eb on the road before it does!

 

[Gregg]

Shame about the fire but seems to have kicked you into doing it properly :rasp:

You still coming on Sat?

 

[Ben_Stevo172]

Why didn't you paint it all at once then danny? Got the full shell prepped, waited for the paint and done the whole shell in one! That's what I did, sooo much easier! Then knock the panels off in a second sitting?!

Oh and BTW, looking good mate! I think the fire actually did the car good!

 

[DannyR]

More worried about getting it back up and running TBH. Outside prep etc. is going to take a few days including painting and only working on it at night, that time is longer!

I just needed the inside done so could get parts back in like pedal box so brake lines can be made up and loom and cage put in once and for all!

 

[Dean.]

I love this thread. Great work mate

 

[saltyhair81]

see, everything happens for a reason Danny


Really want to see how the respray comes out. Great stuff

 

[DannyR]

Few pis from yesterday, was hoping to get more done tbh but the steering rack frame thing needed to be painted. Got the custom subframes in which are available to be made up if people want them now templates are made! Got master cylinder and pedal box in, all door rubbers on, doors and boot stripped down for paint. Shuts have been sprayed too. Monday night will see a massive step with getting the inside nearly completed, hoping to be running for Saturday and painted for following Saturday! Cage was sprayed yesterday also, the colour match on it was spot on to what I wanted, pics really don't show proper colour of anything!

 

[Gray]

Schweeeeeeeeeet!!!!

 

[RichCup]

Looks absolutely sweet mate!

 

[DannyR]

meet when done?!?

 

[Nafoff]

very nice mate, dark blue cage?

just don't mark anything, or if you do make sure you have touch-up sticks / pens

 

[DannyR]

Cage is the same colour as samco hoses, got a litre of it so plenty left! Will
be scratched when front/rear joiners will go in unfortunately but it's one of them things! Hoping to put some very progressive pictures tomorrow night!

 

[Fred@BTM]

it that lunar grey? awesome!

 

[Curtis!]

Staying as a PH1 or sticking a PH2 front end on it while it's getting done?

Will look very different once sorted!

 

[DannyR]

Yup lunar grey, 1 of 3 clios to now be that colour :rasp:

Ph2 front end really doesn't do it for me, so the ph1 front end will be staying

year you can always touch up though i guess, thats the joys of having satin black... but that grey is very nice

 

[DannyR]

Black cage was first idea but it just didn't seem right, needed to stand out a little bit!

 

[oliver.james]

Liking the blue cage!

 

[Gregg]

Lovely biscuits

but there are 4 lunar vees

 

[DannyR]

2 got exported I think! RS site says four but paint codes say only 2

 

[Curtis!]

Very well!

Well, I'm waiting to see it now!

 

[Gregg]

Nah, all still here, still bloody rare colour

Can't wait to see it all completed dude :approve:

 

[b33fy172]

Loving the blue cage!!

Good job.
