Not so much happening right now since I'm going to school right now. Just sitting in the garage waiting for the summer. But since last time i've blacked the headlights and replaced the taillights with the original ones and some other small things. Plan for the winter is replacing the rear beam with one in a better condition, fix some electrical problems, clean up the interior a bit, change the gearbox (small crack in it,so leaks oil) and maybe do a engine swap. I have a Mi16 engine just laying around

Some pictures since last time:

So awesome, get that back a little lower though.

Nice, reminds me of my dad's 205 only this one looks mint! Gread Job with it!

[AndreasW]

Thanks!

The back was lower before, but on those last pictures the stereo was out, so it was about an inch higher than usual : p

Some progress has been made. Recently bought another 205 GTI 1.9 that will be used for parts. I'm gonna use the interior, rear beam, some wiring and probably some other stuff.
I've also started taking apart the orange one. I have removed the rear beam from both of the cars and also started to prepare for taking out the engine While the engine is out I'm also gonna clean the engine bay a bit and try to sort out the wiringmess
Well here's some pictures:







French wiring



Full leather seats


Bumper needs to be repainted, damn Norwegian roads..



How it looks under (not as bas as it looks :P )


Crappy panorama pic just for fun

Been thinking about using some 17's I have laying around, and using 185/35 tyres. Did a quick photoshop, any thoughts?

[DannyE32]

do it if its gonna be that low

[Nilssen]

Nice mate!

[AndreasW]

Update!

Rear beam painted, new shocks too



Old engine is out

Nice weather too!

Gotta love Norway!


Engine and dash wiring is out, what a mess!


Removed rust under and painted,





Rear beam mounted, (except the handbrake cables)


Interior is a mess right now!


Started prepping the enginebay here the other day. Some rust problems here and there that has to be taken care of. Bay will be painted matte black in end
I've also started stripping the other 205. Dash, wiring, engine, etc is out now
My plan is to move everything over to the gold one.

nice project,

althought 17inch is WAY to big for a 205
16inch and 165 40 r16 is also big...

15inch with 165 45 r15 is the best in my eyes

(my project is also here on stanceworks)
