Work STILL in progress (s2) - back from paint...
engines in, even if it was snowing at the time
couldnt tell you what happened to the fanimold, I got it back from karl like that. I know alot of concours people say that they get it fine blasted then just keep it clean with wd40 and it goes a really nice deep brown colour (not rust).

Pink Shocks?! You having a laugh?
Other than that m8, I don't know what to say, that is FANTASIC!
Turbo, braided lines, metering unit all look shit hot!
Im well impressed mate
Truely looks VERY good mate. People are right, it is a shame to put an engine in a mint engine bay, but then, where would it go? LOL
Keep it up mate

Tony, shockers were an idea i had ages ago, my mate got a P1 and I noticed all the sti bits were done in pink, decided to try it on the old s2. Look a little bit
off the car but all assembled I think they look good, people have yellow konis so why not pink. Its different anyway.
Turbo? god knows, NMS spec thats all I know (no Im not scottish Ijust dont know)
Dash surround
Bodge, I did the lines myself, on this occasion I took the lines to a shop near me and they gave me all the parts I needed, I didnt use BSR this time. Im not sure on sizes but I'll take a measure tomorow for you. Im off down again next week, I used nearly all their supplies up of small banjos and things so if you want some I'll tell them to get you some in. Best way to do it I suppose is for me to get you the bits and send them to you, saves trying to describe it over the phone. Up to you, I dont mind getting them for you if you want.

Same with the turbo to be honest, lol. Still not sure about the shocks
Looks sweet as Stephen, you should be very proud
Same question as Adam really, you going to show it? I don't think I'll bother with mine, too much hard work, all that polishing.
Still looking very good mate,
Please tell me your planning on changing the steering wheel
I can't stand the old plastic two spoke jobbies!!
Where abouts have you got your stainless bradied lines made up?? Have you done the fuel lines as well?
I was planning on sourcing it all through Rally Design / Earls etc.. But if you know somewhere local?

excellent, looks spot on
, pink shocks make a nice change they work well with the white paintwork, if I could say one thing though are the wheels going to be the same shade of white as the body? the pictures make the wheels seem a shade brighter. Great re-build though
keep up the good work
keep up the good work
I really like your seats mate... AND your feul lines, AND your overbraiding on the loom, presumably, you have replaced the old wiring?? or just removed and re-fitted plugs to enable fitment??
