Conaero's Spider Rebuild

I'd buy Benny - useful for parts!

Surely he's Cat D?

Cat B, I'm completely f*cked.

Heh. I thought they went the other way!

No, Cat A is parts only but I'm not quite that bad as yet. However, I'm working on it and a week on a f*cking boat is likely to finish me off!

I like him, but he would make a s*** kebab

Is that some sort of floating 'Love Island'?

The old girl went off to paint today, I stripped the final bits off it there, bumpers and roof cover.

She should be back in 2 weeks for me to reassemble, then she goes back into storage till the Spring









I also have a wind deflector winging its way from Germany and a Ragazzon rear exhaust to fit too.

Looking forward to Spring.

It's going to be like a new car next year & one that has been saved from being stripped for parts - well done & I hope the paintwork turns out well

 

[allandwf]

Looking great. Well worth the hard work. Roll on Spring.

 

[Andyk]

She is going look better than new Matt.

When I first saw these photos I thought you were having the Spider painted in the same colour as your brother's car!!

Only a fool would paint (or drive it come to think of it) a car that colour MAF!

Looking good Matt, roll on the springtime for you when you'll really be able to enjoy it

Hum, just been into the bodyshop, she's even pinker now!...I have been assured it is undercoat.
