MK1 project No. 2

**ross_m** · 22-11-2009, 12:19 AM

As some of you know I got myself a winter car. A completely original '81 CL. 77K with service history up to 67K. A bit rusty but it had never been welded. Its all cosmetic.

Some pics of it on stilts when i got it home. G60's off my red one were on for the MOT

The bumpers were really faded but straight so i sprayed them black

Masked up and sprayed

Turned out really well I think

Love the red interior against the white.

This lot will be going on today if the rain ever stops

I like it already Ross. I've been waiting for you to pop your head up and post up some work on the winter car. It's looking good already.

Still love your 2 door though!

Thanks for the comments

The coilovers are TA Techniks. £169 delivered through the mk1 owners club! Cheap but they do the job

The wheels are 7x13 ats classics. You dont usually see them all silver. They usually have black in the spokes.

I think next week end I am going to colour code the centres to the red interior to be different. I did a photoshop. What do you think?

Im going out in 2 minutes to fit the wheels etc

Thanks, what do you think of the red wheels? Im 99% sure i'll do it but just wondering what people think.

I got the coilovers and wheels fitted but it was dark before I could get pics

Will maybe take some tomorrow morning. Looks better than i imagined. Its really low aswell!
