Hi guys, FINALLY got started on the Rallye last weekend, had to wait a while for space on one his ramps at my mates place, but its in at last. Started at the back end, bumper off, axle out, petrol tank out.Plan is to strip/rebuild axle, clean off, prep, prime and stone chip the underneath. Petrol tank straps and various brackets and heat shields are already at the powder coaters, should be ready early next week. Just had my spare set of cyclones powder coated. Putting on refurbed calipers with new pads, new dust covers, hand brake cables, brake lines and hoses. Oh and obviously new axle mounts, bump stops and BOGE gas shocks. The plan is to do the whole underneath front to back. I already have all the bits for the front end, new arms, links, BILSTEIN shocks discs, pads etc. Also have brand new VALEO crystals for the front. Not sure if we'll get time, but i'd really like to get the engine out and get all the engine bay done at some point if we could. Then its over to my mates paint shop to sort out the few dinks and a bit of paint work that needs doing and a bloody good wet sand and polish. Now, i'm not taking any credit on this, i will get my hands dirty at some stages, but my mate has/ will do most of this.I will get some piccys up soon.

Cheers.

Looking forward to seeing updates on this. It is hard work but worth it. Well done for doing petrol tank etc, I haven't done that yet.

Great to finally meet you Andy, and thanks again for today. Thanks for the above OE refs, hopefully i'll be able to help you out with those headlights mate. If anyone's reading this, this next bit I've posted in the 'General' section.

Post #1
Hi guys, Rome wasn't built in a day - but my beam was! I know most of us know Andy - JORD on here, but I want to say a MASSIVE thank you to him. This all started around 4pm Saturday afternoon, no point in going through the whole story, I just needed to get a beam sorted ASAP for my car. I sent Andy a pm around 5.15pm last night (Saturday the 5th) about 10 mins later he was on the phone to me, after about an hour and a few more calls to sort out a few details and requirements, the deal was done. Not only did he came back to me with a price - which was VERY good, he actually built me a beam up today (Sunday 6th). I got to Andy's place to collect it around 5.30 pm today to find him in the garage, and on the floor was new beam - looking the dogs . This guy then took the trouble to take a few bits and pieces of my old beam which i'll need for the new one, gave me a few bits of advice and supplied me with NEW nuts and bolts and even a couple of brake hose clips that were missing from mine. Anyone who's thinking about getting a beam from/done by Andy, let me assure you, this guy is top notch, the quality of the job is unreal, its that good I don't want to fit it back on the car, it should be on display in a glass case in the hall. THANK YOU Andy - you are a star mate

Not a lot to say really, pics speak for themselves, doesn't look bad under there tbh. I'll post more when there's a bit more progress.

Just gathering part together as we speak Chris, went down to a local fastener company and went through all the old nuts, bolts and washers and got me some nice new stainless ones - I like stainless Just having various brackets powder coated, had my wheels re-furbed (and new tyres), just going to get my calipers powder coated and rebuilt. So things are moving on - slowly

cheers
