how much was new carpet? as mine has a tiny hole in it from the skoda rep that owned it back when they were allowed to smoke in company vehicles :(

About £270 ish !

second hand one it is lol  :p

As the original owner of this terrific car, I am happy and sad, happy that Pete has done an amazing job of the restoration and sad that the car after being so well looked after for 13 years ended up so bad.

I remember seeing 66 in Spain many years back and meeting you....

A few pics of 66/100 from 1st owner sixtysixofonehundred (aka Gaz ) pics taken when she had just 5 miles on the clock.

Looking good pete

Sunshine today. So wheels off cleaning time.

Aw man.. this is just epic. Proper restoration work

We took 66/100 to the Castle Combe Spring action day. Lots of admiring glances and great comments which means a lot. Here is a pic of her on the Briskoda club stand with Dave stealing bits !

And today saw a deep clean. All wheels removed. Cleaned with Bilberry inside and out and a coat of Wheel Whores wax. All arches cleaned. Exterior snow foamed then washed using two bucket method and Megs Gold Class shampoo. Towel dried with Swiss Vax drying towel. Exterior black plastics treated with Swiss Vax protection. Tail pipe cleaned and then polished with Autosol. Tyres treated with Megs Endurance. Interior vac'd and wiped with armour all Matt finish. It's been a long day !

You're supposed to clean it inside and out before a show day! Not after!

Much respect to you Pete!

 

I would love to put this much detail into my cars but I really don't have the time (or probably inclination if I'm honest). I was happy to give my three a quick de-tar and a shampoo today. Using all Autoglym products.

Hey thanks for the comment. I'm sure you do more than most with your Autoglym products. Good choice.

Some progress today on 88/100 Turbo and manifold off. To be replaced with new.

Nice seeing 88 getting some attention, cant wait to see what your plans are with this one as im guessing its going bigger and better than ur old one (if thats possible)

The truth is I've no idea what or how this one will turn out

Well 66 is mint so 88 needs to be mental, beauty and the beast

Make it fast

Make it fast

agree  

Make it fast

But they are so comfy and nice standard ! I'm old now you know. If I want fast I shall go and buy a car that's already fast in the first place.

And modify it?

I know what you're like Pete

Make it VERY fast

Corrected for you Charlie!
