The track car rebuild

The slow progress of the track car rebuild























A little more welding
Then paint

Got some bucket seats for Christmas too
Gotta get on with it now

very good progress, was the B-pillar ok? You'll notice the weight difference binning the factory seats

B pillar was fine
Thankfully
Oh yes the standard seats are soooo heavy

your on board a civic, with my nephew driving mine

looked like this after:

That looked hard
How much damage did it do??
I assume it's all ok now?

we reckon about 100mph! ?

most of the damage was underneath. it twisted the engine clean off its mounts, snapped a wishbone, bent suspsension, bent subframe, etc etc
cosmetically, it was damage from front bumper to rear bumper. seems like ages ago

yea, it's all in 1 piece:

Oh dear that didn't look too good
Hope you were all ok?!
Car looks good now tho
Hopefully we will have some of the track car looking like a beauty again soon

I'm glad it's still alive
I've got to get on with mine now xmas is out the way
Lots to do and I want it ready for the BHP show
Any chance you'll be coming?

At the moment I'm not racing that weekend, but the calendar is only provisional

and IF the car is running, I'll try and make it:)

Brilliant
It's always a good day out

I have everything crossed that they don't change the calendar dates JT as would be awesome to see you and the car going round especially if we can get a few of us on track!!!

Once I have all the names on the list and have got the club stand booked I'm going to try and book a track session for all of us
Hopefully we can get a volvo only track session should make a good video
