Ok this all started back at the end of November last year when i crashed my williams, here are the pics from the next day:-

Not very pretty i know, i was gutted.
After the cold, wet & for once snowy winter we had, i managed to get hold of all the new parts needed for inside my clio from various places :D
So me and Chris set out one day when bored (he goes to uni & i do nothing due to no job) and ripped the entire interior out of it :D

Chris hard at work

The pile of parts soon started to get bigger

The inside of the car soon looked like it was in a scrap yard and my rents were wondering if it was going to go back together again :001_unsure: (i have a habbit of taking stuff apart then never putting it back together)

Once the old wiring loom came out, the new one went in with the old dash, with new top dash, new heater controld, new clock and speakers :D and best of all new carpet

Then i got started on the rear pannels being re fitted with the new seat belts

Soon the seats were going back in

New Williams parcel shelf and boot carpet out of my old rl (the williams came with no boot carpet when i bought it lol)

Since doing the interior and taking these pictures the car has had all front and rear speakers fitted in the correct places along with an amg mercedes sub box modified to take a kenwood 800w sub and 2 6x9's so its now a loud little car :D pain in the ass for the neighbours.

Ok with all the internal stuff done, the weather cleared up enough for me and Chris to have a go at pannel beating out the inner arch which became a little bent in the crash. (note the cheapo alloy)

With the pannel beating done on went the rust reppelent :D

After this was done on went a new wing and a new alloy :) it looks like a car again lol,

Since this has been done the new sub frame for the car has been stripped down and needs a good clean then painting with hammerite and re assembling with parts off the old one, how ever euro car parts are holding up progress as their computers went down and my supplying garage only got sent one of my new wish bones lol.
Once they have arrived the whole front end will come off and the car put on axle stands, i will have the sump sent off for welding then HOPEFULLY it will all go back together and run :D

I will keep updating with pictures as stuff happens ppl.

Cheers for reading

since posting these pics up i have decided to rebuilt the engine aswell so once i get cash, the parts will be bought to make it complete again :D

Yea when i bought it, it came with no boot carpet, black main carpet, black seat belts, 1 speaker in the dash lol, and loadsa little probs which came with it lol

Winston did a great job when he first rebuilt it, i'm just carrying on where he left off.

Spent thousands on it lol and had many many lo loaders home lol

lol, when people write about stuff here it sounds simple. It's not!

Good luck with the project. Hopefully as others have worked on it a lot there will be less seized bolts than usual...
