couple of months ago did a part ex with my goodwood for a diablo phase 2 306 gti 6 with 85k on the clocks Cool

it had been in a front end shunt and craigoodwood saved it from the scrap yard where he was working at the time

when he found it





he then got it back upto scratch with a little bit of work Wink







since then it has passed its vic test and has been through its mot Big grin

now i own it i want to continue to restore it back to its former glory

heres some snaps from today, dont worry about how shitty it is, as soon as ive put the bits on its going for a full valet and mop

spare after my flat tyre on the weekend Angry on the plus side its got a brand new p6000 on it Big grin

















right things im going to do are as follows

replace the front bumper for a gti 6 one
get some cyclones
give it a damn good clean inside and out
full service
cambelt kit and waterpump changed ~ allready booked in with carl (mechanical_repairs)
hockey stick under passenger headlight
change the gear knob
get a fascia adaptor

that will be soon as, then for the future

crystal headlights and fogs
get the scratches on the rear bumper taken out
theres a few niggly things i'll take care of too like the clock not working, rear screen wash not working etc

then who knows, supercharger??? Devil

bits ive got so far, hockey stick and clips, gear knob, front gti bumper with fogs, white cyclones, gti embroided car
mats Cool









on my next set of 4 off im going to get cracking on it Big grin
