Those of you that know me might remember my sigma-galant life starting with a matt black aerosole spray GE wagon:
...which was rear ended and salvagable parts (motor etc) was put into a silver scorpion:
...which was also written off and salvagable parts transferred to the current project. Shortly after the orange Scorpion arrived the vinyl on the raised part of the roof was removed and rust holes attacked and assessed:
The car was stripped down and sent off for body work. It was originally an automatic and was at this stage modified to accept a manual gearbox:
It spent a very long time having most of the required body work done. Due to unforseen circumstances some of the work was not completed and the car was retrieved so that work could continue:
Before and after upgrading brakes and suspension:
Painting and modifying bonnet for scoop (the whole cold air intake/scoop setup was created back in the time of the silver scorpion):
Start of 2013, registered, needs to be finished to be used as a daily driver for a while. Ready to be sent off for remainder of body work and full spray:
The engine at this stage looks like this (lightened flywheel, balance shaft removed, lumpier cam, head/valves/carb/jetting etc adjusted accordingly, extractors):
Stripped for paint:
And currently (with much more work still to do) it looks like this (many more current photos at http://www.flickr.com/photos/112723912@ ... 107699053/ ):
Looks awesome
