Arrow mk 5 rs2k track car (ex marco polo) updated pics

well i thought i better to a resto thred on the car , so here goes .

heres a pic of the car when i went to see it



i fell in love with it so i had to have it .
it came without the wheels , suspension , brakes and bucket seats .

ive been getting some parts for the car when ive got the money .

this is how the car is at the moment

nice clean engine bay















zoo bottom arms







i fitted some koni top adjustables for the time being till i can get some coil overs





my brakes on the front are focus rs front disks and pug 406 coupe 4 pot brembos , just got to get a braket made for them





i picked some 17" comp mo's cheap , i will be getting them repainted in white



i think the brakes look good behind the wheels



new center caps for the comps



i got my mate to make me a new breather pot for the engine as im not keen on the red bull can ive got now LOL



my new seats , they were a bargin as i gave my mate Ł100 for his old buckets as he had just had new ones but then i had a phone call of him saying his new seats are to big for his mk1 fez so he said i will swap you for my new ones .

so i paid Ł100 for these beauties



with 3" 6 point harneses





how lucky am i :T:

this is what i hope the car will look like when ive finished



i will update as i go but skint at the moment

cheeRS paul
