Mick Posted October 15, 2015 Share Posted October 15, 2015 Well its been a long 2yrs since my first post when I first bought my cabby. Had a 5/6 month period where I never even looked at the thing but finally its there. Been taking photos of the restoration of course, but missing a few from the interior rebuild 😟 Added a few minor modifications and after putting 500 miles on the clock since the rebuild have a few jobs that I'd like to do to finish it off completely. Was a decent car to start with and only required some minor patch welds to wings and n/s/r qtr panel. Bodywork stripped back to metal, all repairs done and finished in the original paint colour. All new brakes etc, engine checked and serviced, timing belt, new valve stem seals and new clutch. New mohair hood in black and replaced untidy interior trim. Finished off with ford panther black 15's. In the next few months will be looking for standard lattice or rs turbo wheels and standard springs/struts to put the suspension back to standard ride height. Now I know it will never be sold I'm also looking to discreetly upgrade the audio system to something a bit more modern, without cutting and chopping panels. Any pointers would be appreciated 😊 Will upload some pics as soon as i get to a pc my phone wont let me upload them 😐 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
