Hi guys

I recently picked up my new supercharged 6, thanks to Pete for a straight forward deal and to Ash for doing a lot of driving on a Monday night to collect it from Kent!





I've had french hatches since I was 18 including:










The plan is to keep this one and develop it, she's an unfinished project but essentially a good car with a freshly built high boost engine

Home safely and gave her a clean and Meguirs 3 stage the bring the paint up



Work begins, first removing cage








Bucket seat out, frame was fixed with 3 bolts and a zip tie and was p**sed so gonna weld the seat frame in nice and square




Started sanding down cage




I'm going to spray the cage black along with the rest of the interior, which first had to be stripped of sticky bitumen underseal type paint that had been applied, everywhere.
Started here, note the differnce between the clean bits and the deep mahogany of the underseal




The rest took a Saturday, several evenings, 4 litres of white spirit, 10 old T-shirts, a lot of sweat and a sh!t load of patience




Next to tackle the floor insulation in the front by soaking it in white spirit to soften it up then scrape and chisel off



looks a bit like burnt donner meat



The result




General clean up behind lights etc






Removed all rubber seals and put them in the washing machine for a clean up

Looks a tidy track car. I do like the white pro race 3s on a black 6

Lol at the seat ziptie. Some bodges never fail to amaze me. I bought my car from a guy who'd used it for hillclimbing, both front seats were held in with 2 opposite corner bolts!

Never thought of putting the seals in the washing machine.

I have car envy - looks like it will be very tastey indeed!

Keep up the updates

Yeh it certainly wasn't the best way to mount it lol. Still all the major work on the front end and engine looks really good. That seems to be where Pete focussed most of his attention, the engine bay is lovely.

The seals were like new after a 60deg 'bed & bath' cycle no 9 in the Hotpoint, obvs using Daz

Looks like White Mo5s ?

Great work guys ....really can't wait to see this finished
Pete deserves to see it finished ...great bloke

Looks a lovely car. Nice to see one being sorted to actually receive some abuse. Many of these seem to get nursed which is a shame as they are designed for abuse.

Not referring to mine then wouldn't say abused daily but at least weekly

You seemed to like abusing it at pugfest....

Hi petey. Glad to see it's gone to someone who can keep us up to date with progress and someone who, judging by your original sign up date, has been around the '6 scene for a good while.

The car was great to start with and could be as good as a magazine feature if you're that way inclined. When was the last time a 306 graced the pages of PFC ? All your plans sound spot on to me, will be watching this thread with interest

Did you remove the arch liner and fuel filler neck to weld in the drivers side arch mount? I'm fitting one at the moment, got the other 5 in but couldn't remove the bloody filler neck.

Same as that. We're looking to do that as it seems to be the only way to remove the filler neck.
