Hartge H27 piccies while the sun is out !!!

[DanThe]

Thats a bit overpriced and looks crap

Someone should get a mould made for fibregash reps

Looks good Steve

[e30topless]

I'd have been pleased with the car before he sent it to paint as it was in superb order.

I'll have to pop over for a gawk and to pick up those chromie rear pop outs, need to sort out that diamond schwartz front wing with Pete too

sure Lee anytime , wait till the snow clears the Lexus sorearse won't get far in this stuff

cheers Dan

I doubt Fibregash would work, Hartge used a GRP type stuff so it's quite flexible, but still very delicate around the grille area ,
I have had mine repaired using an epoxy resin I know a very good replica is available through USA ebay

[he30]

inspirational Steve, mmmm

[e30ata]

Bloody awsome steve, i may have a quick look if i pop in tomorrow

bit of an update, almost a month since i have done anything on the car

suspension is well under way , fronts are built up ready to go on,
new hub/bearings fitted,
hartge B8's

begining to think i should have powdercoated the legs and back plates instead of spraying them !
the lower arms are as new so not replacing them, just a good clean up
the legs can go on as soon as i get the Hartge front ARB back from powdercoating


fitted new bushes to a beam i got and stuck that on,



and it looks shite!!!

a freind of mine had a fully rebuilt /powdercoated rear beam/arms with all new parts, brake pipes, bearings and all new bushes so after a little chat it was rude not to



ready to go on,




so when the first beam was removed to make way for the new one I thought it's best to replace all the brakelines even though they are in good order,

T piece came off without a fight



wish i had a bigger garage doing anything on the drivers side is a pain,

check out the axle stands, no sill bending going on here !


I have set myself a goal I think another weekends work will see this old turd on the road , I can't wait for that day

[Alex]

Looking good, was nearly going to pop in today too steve, to see if you still had the diff, i was in leeds picking up a front valance, i thought you were probably back in spain.

I hope this will be ready for the pod come sept

[e30topless]

Well after a few final checks, the Turd was lowered down to the ground after sitting on axle stands for 3 months?

attached the battery and it fired first turn,

first time I have heard it with the full system fitted, the Fritz centrebox combined with the Hartge 6 branch and Tail pipe sounds awesome

slowly reversed it out and on to the driveway...

I Fooking love it ! Looks great under.... well almost daylight

I was just about to take it on a steady run up the country lanes ...when it started to rain

here's a few rushed pics, hope you like them







oops looks like some prick has mixed up the sidelight plug with the indicator

[kieran325]

Superb Steve

Well done, it looks a beauty
