Yeh mainly elbow grease, I used just hot water washing up liquid and the rough side of a non scratch Brillo sponge, i started using wire/Brillo pads but soon realised they sctatch but the pink stuff that wire pads are coated with ? No idea what it is but it works a treat.

One of my seat covers is now done so there are pictures to come :D
 
the first seat cover came up not too bad considering my stitching is absolutely terrible, they fit the tope half of the seat nice and snug, made a slight mistake with the measuring on the cushion but these are just a temporary thing to cover the mess of the drivers seat. I've also done tedious job of replacing some of the vinyl on the roof due to bubbling. its all coming together nicely now, just a good wash and wax and were ready :D

for any one that may be interested in this car it will be up sale on the day at Stanford hall, i can be contacted through the day if any info is wanted, my number will be on the car. I've not put it in the sale section yet due to a couple more things to be sorted, it will be posted up after the show

both seats are now covered, sub is repaired and back in. false floor has also been covered with a bit of suede to match the roof liner and all the vinyl squares have been replaced on the roof, added a bit of colour to it too :D what you think ?

i forgot to post about my door and the state it was in when it got broken into which has since been replaced, turned out to be a lot simpler than i first thought lol :D

Stanford hall turned out to be a great day, a lot of cinqs did turn up in the end ! and for those of you that went and maybe saw the beast know its now up for sale :(

il post some more pics up from the day and it will be in the classified's shortly. i would prefer it to go to a forum member purely due to the fact it will be taken care of a lot more so if any of you knows anyone on here or clubcento that maybe interested please let them know and drop me a line.

the car will be sold with the original interior unless the buyer dosn't want them, seats & belts also origional air filter, and a couple of other bits.

thanks
 
ran into a little issue on saturday, as i was driving home from a friends the car cut out compltely and would not start again :( i think ive narrowed it down to the fuel pump. i have noticed the car splutter from time to time, after eliminating other possibilities and speaking to a freind hes going to get it on a diagnostics for me soon so i can sort the problem out asap. fingers crossed fuel pump is all that it is and should be a quick easy fix.
 
The first guess of the fuel pump was based on a crapy discription by my self through a text, turn out it was the sensor, it was touching alternator slightly and it cut through it, thanks for the info. Glad it's back running again and it was something so simple.

Thanks again
