That kit looks mad lol. How are you gonna attach it to the car.

scoooby slayer

iTrader: (4)

il be honest glenn im not sure yet mate, ideally I would like it all screwed on like the original cars were and removable, I may foam fill the insides so its still light but a lot stronger and have a lot more support.

ajamesc

Can you not glue it on with body panal glue be a lot stronger than screws

scoooby slayer

iTrader: (4)

I could mate yes I just like the idea of it being removable, as they were originally and easy if any fibre repairs are ever needed.

Just silicone the kit on lol or use wood screws..

yeah seen him on capri club have spoken to him about how he got his so low as im working on what im gonna do still.

that's my potential plan with a foam beading on the join, and also foam filled kit from inside (not visible) to make the kit more rigid. I cant see anything happening this year work is flat out and I have no time at all still working 7 days, im working today im just in for lunch lol.

ptgladstone

looks like he lower the body 80mm all around looks a lot of work but worth it

That one on facebook looks mint.

ptgladstone

He's got the look just right I love it

sridgett

Looks mental mate. What model of capri was it to start with?

scoooby slayer

iTrader: (4)

yeah lots of work im planning on 50mm all round, massive wheels, 335/30/17 rears, I will lower the kit if I have to im not doing what he did with the shell fook that lol


mine will be built as a proper road car though

ptgladstone

Well it hasn't got a sunroof or a rev counter so I would reckon a base model like a L,LS or GL. Just like the original

ptgladstone

Don't blame you mate , plus your shell is far too good to cut up

ptgladstone

Don't blame you mate , plus your shell is far too good to cut up

it was a difficult decision as the shell will need extensive work to fit the kit, but it had to be a 2.8i special with the lsd and proper junkers are £2k I had to spend over£4k to get a decent one to start with, the motor is mint so ripe for the supercharger conversion


mine will be a rarity aswell as it will have the proper full rear tail spoiler that's still in design/production now it should be here soon

I don't know when I will have time to get on it though, also got a 318 mopar v8 to build for my Chrysler if these 7 day weeks at work ever end

Good project, but not sure I'd have wanted to have pulled a mint 55k car to bits to do that to it....each to their own !

scoooby slayer

iTrader: (4)

The thing is £2k buys nothing nowadays for a 2.8i special, they were utter Shit, if i buy a £2k turd it will need £2k or more spending on it for engine, gearbox, lsd axle, interior etc to all be mint like mine is, and even then it will still not be close to the car I have and I don't have all that work to do the cars ready just needs kit and supercharger install so you see I didn't really have a choice and ade sealed the deal with the donation of the sprinter supercharger kit I wanted an engine, drivetrain young and healthy enough for abit of boost

Mr S1

iTrader: (2)

No, fair comment and I thought that so I don't blame you at all for doing what you did I just don't think I'd have the heart to pull that one to bits but that's just me !


A sentimental old sod !

I know what your saying mate and a grinder hasn't touched the car yet, I may feel the same once im armed with a grinder lol

gjh
