#1: Tomd0801754 WIP Car #2 (Violet- GTi138 Track Car) Author: tomd0801754, Location: MoscowPosted: Thu Jul 14, 2011 2:28 pm ---- So Violet was bought for £480 on 12th July 2011. She is a GTi138, 73k and a came with a few little extras.
=-/
GT Bumpers all around, SP arches, Cobra Bucket seats, Pink/Purple Speedlines, lowered and no rear seats... A track car? No offence to Shell, who had to deal with my eagerness, but not a full track car in my eyes
So, I graduated yesterday, meaning no work got done. Then after a heavy night of eating and drinking I awoke and started work around Midday on the 14th July
First off was a trip to the scrapyard to sort out a few things.
First off a track car doesn't need a SP petrol cap.
Tinted rear windows:
Removal of front grill sticker:
Removal of Tow rear sticker:
Removal of Tow front sticker:
Then came the full strip down:
The pile gets bigger:
The inside gets emptier:
More to come tomorrow as my iPhone died so couldn't take anymore photos. Most of interior is now out.
A few decent plans to take effect soon Last edited by tomd0801754 on Tue Sep 27, 2011 12:30 pm; edited 2 times in total
