My daily BA Hatch
Hey heres another annoying worklog.
bought it with 312000 on the clock for $400. it was a little smashed up and non loved. broken clutch system after a few $$ and a few hours (total cost to date INC rego/insurance is $1550) painting fun painted my MS lip in primer, needs more bog however it will probably end up on this car in the near future. enjoy! stock as a rock inside and under the hood. lovely and quiet.

The panel gaps are way better then my project car! Any body damage? Just keep it away from ankle choppers and traybacks!!! The body, seals etc look in good form.

looking good but remember people we're encouraging him to get his project whipped into shape not the daily, clean and tidy will keep the cops off his back until then.

Meh, clean and tidy is one thing but a nice set of 15" rims would be nice.
A V6 strut brace would also make a nice difference to the standard handling without breaking the bank.

Have said brace. Exhaust almost got fitted but realized it uses a different flange and bolting the whole thing up was way too much effort. My mate was going to install coilovers today until he realised the rear ones are still in my project car. Need to fix the heater core on the weekend. Painted the bonnet black. Not sure if I like it or not. Came out with spray lines all through it, so it'll be redone in the near future.

Which is ok. Under the hood is oil free, stock and legal. Tail lights although tinted are clearly visible from 100 m away and I masked off the reflector completely. So cops can happily waste their time

its missing something. i cant explain it but the front just looks bare? if you know what i mean.
i think its the gap at the bottom of the front bar. if you put foggies in, i think it'd fill that area a lot nicer.

This is his daily stop giving him ideas Congrats man, looks great, I'd honestly keep it like that and put all effort into the project now, because I can't wait to see it finished |
