Compomotive CXN's new refirb

Recommended Posts

I bought these a couple of weeks ago as a project, thought they had potential. Ive been spending alot of time on them and are very close to being rebuilt, tired up and fitted.

 

What they looked like when I bought them. Not too shabby but not great either

how did you paint the windows in gold and what paint did you use?

 

With those et's you need to find a way to mount the rear wheels straight to the car without adapters.

yea they are off wheel whores. they were basically a mile down the road so it was easy for the seller.

 

I masked the whole centre piece with tape then had to use a stanly knife to cut around the polished bits. took a while but it was worth it. The paint is plasti-cote metalic paint from B&Q seems to do the job.

 

As for the ET. I may have to redrill the hubs, may turn down my adapters. I'm gonna leave it to a mate of mine whose got a load of experience and says to me help sort it for me :clap: :clap:
