Hi all thanks for the comments

it just got its first wash as i had the windscreen fitted on monday so before i start i took so pics










still got the loom to sort but should be all done on thursday and then it should start

 

Beautiful that, fair play. Now get it running, MOT'd and have some fun

 

loving the project .how do you go about registering it with you swaping the bulk head shocker towers and the floor ?

 

Declare on insurance and simply register with DVLA, providing engine number etc and increase in CC. Very easy

 

will it not need a IVA test though ?

only thing im asking is im looking into doing somthing like this but use it as a ever day car so id like it to be all legal, thats not saying the way you do it is not legal.

 

Mines all legal and a daily driver

 

Dark indicators and tail lights aren't my thing, but the rest of it looks absolutely amazing.


Cheers,
Grant

 

its always bothed me how much roughly have u lot spent on each of these projects youve done as im thinking of doin something similar but keeping the extierior as standard as possible so i can trick people so it get as little attention as possible if possible might be funn do do it with a 5 door

 

Think of a figure, double it.

Think again, and double again.

Add the 2 figures together and you may be close to the true cost.

Exactly the same formula works for,, How long did it take to do?

.

 

hahaha its really that bad

 

Car look's lovely M8 well done

look forward to seeing it at some show's this year

 

It appears the DVLA still have this car in my name, wanna pm me to discuss?

 

Surley all he needs to do is apply for the book as its not yours anymore as it was paid out ?

 

I would think so yeah, but that will cost him Ł25 I believe, might be a better way to sort it for him, not sure. Bit shocked that the car has been thru 3 owners and had all this work done, when its still registered in my name. Seems a bit risky for this fella given it obviously owes him a fair bit now and its not in his name.

 

it will just be a admin error from the insurance to dvla ive had plenty of damaged cars sometimes the log book is in limbo untill someone claims it but im sure nobody will argue for Ł25. nice to see the car built back up

 

yeah defo, looks awesome! Hopefully he will drop me a pm and we can sort the logbook thing out.

 

great work, that looks awesome!

 

i contacted the dvla over this shell and all he needs do is fill the form in and pay 25 quid ,i didnt really wana put a nother name on log book so never did it my self ,my shell thats sat for 2 years hasnt had log book sent off and that was a cat d

 

ah cool, ignore my post on other thread then!

 

the Logbook has been sent off but not got it back yet cheers

 

How's the build coming on ?

 

hi all i've not had the car for a few weeks as it been having a exhaust mad at power and performance in norfolk and has now been droped off at a auto electrics specialist as the larst person can't finish it because off work so it has put me behind so hope to get it all sorted and MOTed by the end off the mouth
