Hi guys,

In light of recent events I didn't really feel like posting it up - but then thought that maybe it would take our minds off of things maybe.

Have just got some tidying up (and proper mounting) of the miniPC system which I will be selling through my company.

Here are some pics of the car and the system - sorry about the big download and poor quality of some of the pics (my Fuji camera can't stand twilight!).







































Let me know what you think,

Cheers,

Andy

P.S. Thanks to Ins@[ERRR] for selling the seats to us the other day

[InS@nE]

and might wanna give them a quick clean mate, lol ps that aint my stains i'd like you to know

[heeman10]

Here's some more pics - showing first steps for securing the PC in the boot, will be painted and carpeted up tomorrow and the PSU is being put into a vented ABS box with 12V fan to aid cooling - this will be included in all of my basic systems.













Cheers,

Andy

that is one mint 3i cabby andy, looks completely original (bar the pc and recaros of course !!), looks very very clean.

loving the pc install as well, im going to have to have words with you sunday at FITP, might be interested in a basic setup

Xander

[andyhardy]

Cheers dude,

The only thing that isn't standard about it apart from the seats and PC are the lowered suspension (very shoddy job by previous owner) and the towbar (was previously used to tow a jetski from round here to the beach a few miles down the road - that's how we first saw it being advertised for sale on our way back from the beach one day).

We're picking up AndyBlackFRST's old 15" Momo's hopefully on Wednesday so that should pretty much finish the car off (although personally I'd like my Dad to put a nice subtle s/s exhaust system on it to give it a better rasp!).

Shall post up more pics of the progress tomorrow - should be pretty much complete!

Cheers,

Andy

No new pics or vids today - absolutely shattered after spending the day travelling various different places to pick things up, have AndyBlackFRST's old Momo alloys to go on the cabby now

Cheers,

Andy

No no no no no,

I personally think that it would make it look tacky having clear repeaters when the car never came with them.

If we were to change the side repeaters it would be to orange mondeo oval ones.

Cheers,

Andy

[Max M4X WW]

Just think it would go better with the grey bumpers, Get rid of those spotlight then.

[andyhardy]

Right,

Here's the car as it is now (with new wheels - thanks to AndyBlackFRST )

Wheels before:



Wheels after cleaning :



And here's a shot of the car with the new wheels on - I think it looks spot on!



Sorry about the poor downsizing, using my Dad's computer so just got photobucket to use it's crumby resizing algorithm.

Better quality pics to be redone later on my own PC.

Cheers,

Andy

[xander7]

jeez that's some serious cleaning there andy, looks like they were caked in muck and brake dust !!, look sparkling now though !!

the cabby is looking sweet, be interesting to have a look at it at FITP, along with the finished pc install.

can't wait

Xander

[andyhardy]

Thanks Xander,

Here's the rest of the pics (sorry yet again for the big download! )















Cheers,

Andy

OK dude, thanks!

[Capri]

Looks ace mate! Very nice indeed!

[andyhardy]

Thanks dude!

[Max M4X WW]

Well, Here are my 20min attempts. Removal of front spots is pretty poor, Esp on the passenger side

But, Ive removed the spots, Clear front and side reps, removed door reflector things...



Removed the toe-bar, dodgey vinyl graphics and painted the brake drums black.



Think thats it?

[andyhardy]

You're swaying me!



Towbar will be staying as may well be getting a trailer for carting stuff around (well my Dad may well be )

Cheers,

Andy
