Bravo (Classic) Bravobeastie (tina)

[kayl0rz]

some people might have known.. some might not have..

this afternoon in a exchange of money for car.. i became the new owner of Bravobeastie.. first owned by Skate2Create, and then owned by Bushboy.

shes a non runner at the minute but shes booked in and is going to the garage to be fixed in the next few weeks.

untill then candice will continue to be my primary car untill Tina is all fixed up and then she'll be sold wish i could have them both but unfortunately money will not allow!

so next show season.. ill be outing with the new car!

although i call her Tina.. she's never going to shake off the bravobeastie name.. so dont get confused if you hear me using both the names!! its still the same car!!

when i picked her up.. about to be towed away!

 

[bulldog5046]

are you going to try and source some more of the nice wheels to go back on her?

 

[kayl0rz]

yup.. id like to find some nice deep dish euro style wheels to compliment her sleek and sexy look.

but i really liked the stilo abarth wheels that she used to sport. dont think ill put her back on 17's though. 16s at the most i think. you can get abarth replicas for £99 a wheel from a website serin pointed me towards the other day... but who knows!

 

[bulldog5046]

yeah, performancealloys.com i think it is

 

[JFL]

yep, deffo put some nice alloys on her

how did you tow it

[Xen]

I'm sure she'll prove a good buy for you once she's on the move again and I'm really pleased she's gone to a good home

 

[kayl0rz]

cheers guys

i plan to take good care of her

 

[Bushboy]

Glad to see you got it home in the end Any word from your mechanic on whats up?

 

[jamie86]

Looks tidy enough..

Whats actually wrong with it

 

[jug]

from previous threads it sounds like head gasket has blown between cylinders 2 and 3. bushboy did not do a compression test so we cant be sure yet.

 

[jamie86]

Piece of pi$$ fix then

 

[kayl0rz]

now shes all fixed.. and i dont have any proper set shifts at work this week tomorrow i will begin de-skate2creating bravobeastie!

ordered new number plates other day basically normal style but the 'slogan' thing at the bottom says 'BravoBeastie'

im going to remove the sill things, with a hair dryer and some patience. i might have a gander at the door cards tomorrow too.

and i neeeeed to get my HU and sub and amp fitted.. ive been using my phone for music and ive only got 3 songs on it gets a little boring!

the one thing i neeeeeeeeeed are alloys, shes rocking the rat look with the steelies but i yern for some proper nice deep dish euro style wheels. a friend of mine is going to give me his alloys off his lancia dedra, as a temp thing.

so if anyone has some like 15's or 16's they would like to donate to keep Tina looking beautiful.. it would be much apreciated!

also... anyone want to lend me their garage so i can do the bits i need to away from the cold im gonna get ill the ammount that needs doing! she needs a wash too but in this weather.. it freezes before i get a chance to dry her!!

will update with pics of progress as soon as there was any!

oh and yeah, it was the HG.. dunno how much it cost to fix yet, not settled up with the garage bloke.. which was nice of him.. gave me the keys and said 'take it your dad will be in later then'

that was yesterday and i cant get enough of her! shes quite a step up for me.. compared to candice anyway
