Low mileage, minters, fully restored cars, come out and show yourselves
I've always liked seeing how some cars are kept unbelievably tidy. It's almost like they were stuck in a time capsule.
Let's see those low mileage, fully restored, concours condition or just incredibly mint cars. I'm sure there are a few of you here. :thumb: So whip off those car covers and show off your garage queens! :D |
Not a Subaru but here is my very clean rubber bumpered Midget.

First outing after the build..... http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v1...ps25827169.jpg And during assembly..... http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v1...A/null-585.jpg http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v1.../null-2115.jpg http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v1.../null-1313.jpg http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v1.../null-2405.jpg http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v1...A/null-911.jpg http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v1.../null-2057.jpg http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v1.../null-2493.jpg http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v1.../null-2086.jpg http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v1...A/null-862.jpg http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v1...A/null-823.jpg http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v1...A/null-283.jpg Sorry Errol I could not resist that :D http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v1...ps916c2c58.jpg |
Wow that is insanely clean!!

Where are the after pics Si ? :confused: :D

Once my S202 comes back from having a full service and TLC I'm hoping it'll be good enough to grace this thread properly. ;)
In the meantime here are some pics before it left Japan. http://i580.photobucket.com/albums/s...psd1115a85.jpg http://i580.photobucket.com/albums/s...ps2038100a.jpg And a couple of it after it arrived in the UK. http://i580.photobucket.com/albums/s...ps406181ed.jpg http://i580.photobucket.com/albums/s...ps6faaf23b.jpg http://i580.photobucket.com/albums/s...ps3ce1b0cd.jpg http://i580.photobucket.com/albums/s...ps1943bcbc.jpg It's is unbelievably good condition for an 11 year old car, the non standard side reflectors and side repeater lamps are being swopped out for the original orange items. The drivers side mirror for some unknown reason has a Blobeye mirror fitted so that's being changed for a Bugeye item, and it's having a few minor paintwork issues addressed. All the chassis and suspension bushes are being swopped out for SuperPro polyurethane items, any removed subframe/chassis metalwork will be cleaned and freshly powder coated to keep the underside fresh. It'll then be freshly undersealed ready for next year's show season, oh and the interior is like brand new as well - no marks, burns, scratches or damage to be found inside the cabin. :) |
And yes I did pinch some of my ideas from Simon. :D

You'll be there Ty.... What are you doing in the wheel arches themselves will you be doing a nice fresh coat of blue and just sealing the underside ? I think that would look great.

My Fresh built track car does that count?

. If they need doing they'll get done without hesitation but I'm fairly sure it'll just have a fresh underseal. I'll be leaving that decision to the expert. :) |

I'm not sure yet Simon, from memory the inner wheel arches are in excellent condition it doesn't look like they've ever seen any road salt etc.

I'll be leaving that decision to the expert. :) If you're going to be showing it off at shows, but also using it as intended, occasional track day, backroad dash etc, then i think all you need is one of those overpaintable stonechip. You can then paint over in body colour and the archs will look brand new. The regular JDM STIs come like that from the factory. It is nicer like that in my opinion than say slapping on waxoyl; which may probably offer better protection if you are intending to drive it during winter, or want to something that you apply and forget about it. |
