Been reading here for a long time, get some idea's wich are new over here and just read about other peoples projects.
Been in to low cars as long as i can remember, and with friends always looking who can go lower.
Stance of the car is everything, its not always how low it is but how it fits the cars profile. With that said let me introduce myself. I'm Henri 27 from the netherlands and a life time car enthousiast. Always been to car shows with my dad when i was litle and now we build cars together.
Always try to build new things or do things different then others. My job is cars and i build custom engines next to my job as a first mechanic in a carshop.
My specialty in engines is supercharging mechanical or with turbo charger doesnt matter to me it just have to have boost. My first engines where N/A with bigger pistons and ITB's but a whinning S/C or a whistling turbo does it more for me.
I'm lucky enough that at the place a work we can get to drive some really cool cars like this
So you can say my work is my hobby.
But on with my own "collection"
Build this car for my girlfriend
It was al litle peugeot with a small 1.1 litre engine wich i done all the bodywork and fitted a larger 16valve engine with discbrakes at the rear and big brembo 4pots at the front. Leather inside and rollcage
After that i build her this car
Was a base model seat ibiza, but gave it cupra looks and some other wheels. Not to extreme it was here daily driver
Liked thar car so much i build one myself
But with an 1.8 20V turbo engine with bigger turbo and injectors etc... it made 284bhp !
Was a nice change for the previous car with "just" 170 bhp from a n/a 1.8 litre engine (standard 1.6 16v with bigger pistons and other crankshaft)
That car was my addiction to wheels
But the real pride and joy is my 65 mustang wich i complety rebuild from the ground with an 500 bhp supercharged engine. Cobra brakes front and brack, custom coil over suspension, 5 speed cobra gearbox etc..
As i love classics i sold the blue cupra and bought a Opel kadett C wich i changed a little
And on winter steels
Needed a younger daily driver for the misses zo bought a Audi S-line
In winter modus here, in summer its lower (coil overs) and with 19 inch BBS Speedline's (originel audi) only need a new lower grille and to mount the dark housing headlights.
For the weekends i have this as a track car
Two litre turbo charged
And this litle beauty we are building for my dad, its a car he drove when i was young. Its a simca rallye
I completly build the engine myself from different engines. Head from a ABF volkswagen engine, block from a matra murena, sump from a simca rallye, ignition from a peugeot 205 gti, supercharger from a small japanese car (AMR500) etc..
Looks like this now
Going to get lowered, painted orange with matt black and some Gotti 3 piece wheels under it with wide fenders.
Standard engine was 82 hp, now its going to be 200HP + from 1.3 litre
