Looks like its gonna be pretty special! what colour are you going to go for Hilgie?

[Jonmurgie 2]

Hmmm... not sure I'm liking the way that's looking, though will reserve judgement until it's done as your other projects have been simply awesome

 

I must have a chat to you about the V6...

[Hilgie 16 2 Cars]

It's not for the purists Jon

[jim21070 2]

Looks more like a 205 Ute (pick-up)

[ANDYGON 6]

respect the work you've done but not a fan of that so far.

what lump is going in?

[TEKNOPUG 3]

205 Speedster? It's a logical conversion. Look forward to the finished article.

[inferno 1]

well your v6 was great and inspired me...

 

ill be watching this one now! but what id really like to see is a twin rear axle 4x6wd extended version... similar to rhulpugs avatar!

 

im sure you could pull it off

Keep having those unpure thoughts Hilgie!

 

The end result?!

[Pugnut 9 1 Cars]

surely you will need some sort of roll bar for safety??

 

doesn't look much at the moment but i'm sure hilgies attention to detail and fine eye for all things 205 will turn out another stunner!

[sonofsam 5]

As inventive as ever, you know this is going to be great.

 

Looking forward to seeing the finished article Hilgie.

[Hilgie 16 2 Cars]

what lump is going in?

could you not incorparate some hoops behind the seats and welded to the horizontal strut? chrome maybe or black depending on final colour.

[Hilgie 16 2 Cars]

there will be chrome Audi TT hoops behind the frontseats.

I Picked up a 205 CTI last night for £150 as i wanted the engine and was so thinking of doing this as ive never seen one with the back cut of i.e pickup looks like you beat me to it,

 

Great work & Very nice workshop mate, few Custom Hotrod Prohjects in the back ground - always nice to see

Should be an interesting project, can't wait to see it finished.

 

Henry, have you had your car painted already?

 

Graham.

[Edp 67 3 Cars]

That looks interesting. You wont be taking it out in the rain then?

[NOsMAN 10 1 Cars]

Its going to be an amphibious car like Topgear style

[Hilgie 16 2 Cars]

That looks interesting. You wont be taking it out in the rain then?

 

No rain for this car. It won't have any roof, so it is a sunshine only mobile

 

The workshop isn't mine, but he does have some interesting projects going on. Most of the metalwork is being done by VonWood. http://www.vonwood.nl

Defo different, so how much has been chopped out and how low are you going on the suspension?

[Hilgie 16 2 Cars]

the front windshield has been chopped by 7 inches. The seats will be on the floor. Suspension is going to be very very low.
