dcc 855 Posted June 13, 2015 When you say signature series... What 'spec' will that be? Engine standard? What wheels, suspension, rear beam, interior? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Ant*k 4 2 Cars Posted June 14, 2015 Dimma only ever did bodywork, engine was done by turbo technics and interior was always left standard when done new The car had already had a interior re trim to full grey leather and most of the interior parts changed for new The engine has been rebuilt and is a standard 1.9 gti Brake overhaul, new driveshafts, fuel lines etc will all be changed But as for the bodywork which terry will be doing using a new dimma kit ordered from the factory in Belgium he will fit it as he did back in the 90's and it will receive a plaque from dimma and also a signature plaque from terry It's a full kit, bumpers, front wings, rear quarter panels, tailgate panel, spoiler and a full respray followed by a set of genuine dimma wheels Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Henry Yorke 269 3 Cars Posted June 14, 2015 Dimma only ever did bodywork, engine was done by turbo technics and interior was always left standard when done new A lot of Dimmas had retrimmed leather interiors with "Dimma Design" printed / embroided into them. I know the 309 Mix4 had and James_S's CTI Dimmas has it and I've seen a few other cream ones over the years The did engine conversions too, usually 16V ones or fitted carbs etc, but did outsource the turboing to Turbo Technics Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Ant*k 4 2 Cars Posted June 15, 2015 Terry only ever did the body kits on them everything else that was done was sent to different company's Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
