Here are some pics of my nearly finished C2 2.7:














It's been a work in progress for the last two years and I've owned it for 6 years now.

It's become a bit of a garage queen now and I've only one or two jobs to carry out before it's finished (famous last words)

Looking good there fella. What are the two remaining jobs by the way?

Maybe more than two, but the few jobs remaining are:

1.Replace the clutch slave cylinder.

2.Cure the gearbox leak at the propshaft end.

3.Fit some braided hoses (ordered on the group buy today).

4.Maybe fit a new interior carpet.

That's enough to be getting on with

Absolutely stunning! You must have a very patient better half to let you spend so much time with a car

Little suggestion, if you are changing the slave cylinder you may as well change the master as well as it will become a weak point and start leaking as well.

I'm putting the master cylinder upgrade on that C3 in crystal palace sell, reduces pedal travel by 25% i'm told. The other half is very understanding, but then she's a photography nut and spends more money than I do

that looks fantastic, aren't you tempted to replace those BK's with genuine alpinas, I think the 8Js on the rear should give more useable power...

Regardless of that, I love it!

I would like to, but I had 16" borbet a's on it before and they look really small when I put them on for winter

im sure i have seen this motor about did u usd to drive it round walringham area??

No, around Tonbridge for a while and now Croydon. I got the chrome rings for the heater controls, thanks for the heads up
