    So guys, it's 5 years later, a divorce later and a complete reconstruction of the house later, now it is time again for my 308 turbo project
    Gathering dust for 5 years makes it look terrible but it is not that bad underneath.

    Beside cleaning it up, the work will involve putting back all windows, lights, bumpers and other small stuff as well as some engine work.
    The plan is to have it road ready again soon..

    Excited to get this baby back on the road again!

    Wow! What a project! Looks great so far and be proud you haven’t given up on it. I’m sure we all know how life gets in the way sometimes and be happy you were able to keep it during all the ups and downs.

    Hey what’s that QV doing lurking in the background........

    Slow progess

    Test fitted the doortrims in the neW resin doors, put in thr rear window, started with the headlights which i will make manually operated.
    Also ordered a service set for the carburettor ( a carter 9400) and some rubber trims

    I also ordered lexan glass panels for both the doors, including sliders

    IMHO, those are the most classic wheels on the whole planet! Plus they go so well with the car.

    This week I recieved the lexan door windows from the UK.
    After some adjusting they fit perfect. I also really like the slider window.

    Hey Steven,

    Can you give some details on what front clip you're using? (Given that you're showing it removed as one-piece, it caught my interest).

    It was put on after my Spa crash. Actually, both front and rear clip can be taken of in one piece.
    The company that put these on is not in business anymore so i'm not able to provide more details
