Well after been laid up since November and wanting a underside restoration... Well freshen up...I've decided to seek help... Due to not having the space or time.... So I've been in speaks with the head of carter's in Sheffield that have done this sort of thing before...So they are going to get the car done and ready for it going to MSD in the beginning of April...

 

Nice one mate you doing a thread on it ? Keep us updated

 

Yes I will do mate... I'm going to buy another digital camera and leave it with them... I just haven't the time....

 

Nice one mate the car deserves it it's making a real mint car better

 

Cheers mate.

 

Cant wait to see it

 

Don't you worry Dan it will be finished..!

 

The carters local to us mate if so my mates dad runs/owns it he's called paul?

 

Yes been down and spoke with Paul carter today... Cracking bloke.

 

That's the man himself very helpful been running that place as long as I can remember. Hope all goes well with it mate unlike my s2 which aint gonna be at ring now cus it needs a new roof. Keep an eye out 4 a thread if ya doin one.

 

Cheers mate.

 

Is that the little dealership thats on the left just before the island that takes you upto jct 35. Drive past there most nights.

 

Yea it is mate.

 

Me Fav 3 door ..

Gonna get better ..

 

Cheers Ross... To most it's acceptable to me it isn't OCD kicking in...


Here's how it stands now... It good but not good enough

 

WOW! Its clean as it is but if you can make it better then it'll be bloody awesome pal! But just dont get so carried away that it's too clean to use

 

Didn't realise they undertook resto work. They're doing well to keep going for being a small trader in todays climate. Would it not be worth waiting till next year as its pretty mint as it is. Or is the plan to enter it into concourse this year.

 

It's just been bugging me... It's not how I want it tbh...it needs to be spot on...the car already been a ND gold cup winner...and many wins.


The paint work underneath need to be like this..

 

I wish mine looked like that underneath matt lol.
Are you that busy you cant do it yourself?What do you do for a living.

 

It's going to be ridiculously clean underneath mate, but with the topside being as mint as it is, I can see why you'd want it all to be to the same standard. Can't wait to see the underside thread develop mate.


Cheers,
Grant

 

I had a career change last year... Infancy both me and Danneth did... Im now a fibre optic and cable engineer...fitting out school.


Cheers mate... I will do a thread.

Short but so much fun

Actually was just going through me piccys on fb and i still got the one where you ripped the suspended ceiling down, because one tile wouldn't come out

 

Was in show room a while ago, think the owner was trying to sell it but wanted mega money for it

 

If there's a problem and I can't fix it.... Then I make it worse....

 

No not there now... I was in show room yesterday.

 

Sounds like an interesting job.Do you work for a company then.

 

Looks cleaner under there than most do on top ..

 

Yea mine and my friends company.


Yea agree mate...it's bugging me tho like that...

 

Nice one matt.Hope your enjoying it.
