After what I said when we chatted tonight I take it back, it looks

Looks brilliant Alan, but have to agree with Ali, your gonna need to build a second track car!
Hairdresser at heart.
Re: S1 Honda Converison
looking really good Alan, i look forward to seing the end result, and im sure the clio will be looking forward to a break from track driving!!!
Re: S1 Honda Converison
Paint will be with them tomorrow so shouldn't be too long.
Yes Mike, believe it or not im quite a subtle guy and hate being the centre of attention. I always loved the colour so had to go for it. I will try my hardest to make the road run but i doubt anyone will see me as i will be the Orange Spec 4 miles behind at a steady paint friendly 20 MPH.
Cheers

Clio is retired from Track use Mike. Took it to the AMP3 day and it didn't do to well. Brakes were cooked in seconds etc ... had to take it easy/ish to ensure Jen gets to work.mikeyb13 wrote:Not as much as Im looking forward to not being chased round the track by it.ClarkyBoy wrote: im sure the clio will be looking forward to a break from track driving!!!![]()

Re: S1 Honda Converison
Pop some armourfend or similar on the front, would be a shame to waste all the work / cost, and it's a fact that the Elise shape takes a hammering around the nose with it so low to ground etc.

Re: S1 Honda Converison
More progress



Exuse the dust over all my hard work. The rest of the paint was delivered to Painters today so they have promised to have it back to me early next week. Have to say I am enjoying this stage.

Re: S1 Honda Converison
Surprised no one has spotted something I missed.
Re built the whole car and haven't replaced the Red Clutch Hose. Always intended on replacing it but kept putting it off.
