Cinquecento my green cinq project.

[centoproject]

no real difference in strength handles are a bit more flimsy but should stiffen up.with the cf in place
No waight specs yet but I would say about 3 kg of steel will do measuring tomorrow

 

[Lecook]

Awesome door handles wont be there when im finished lol just a little button and maybe a emergency strap as a back up


Lee

 

[centoproject]

Good point was thinking of a red strap other day but keeping it fairly stock . Plus its weight isn't notasable plenty of time to think about it more updates to come

Oh yeh was thinking of bulkhead chop and replace with cf using super strong adhisive but not to sure dont want to go to mad won't be low on power and want to keep some weight lowdown.

 

[blu73]

if you gonna start chopping bits out and replacing with CF why not do a real CF roof and bonnet... I normally slate them but thats cause they are never real ones...

 

[centoproject]

may do later on just haven't got money at the moment :/ plus the bonnet is fairly light so not on main to do list yet main focus is to get engine supported by the frame then driveline then linkages then cage although may do that while installing new front end may as well combine the two for strength.

 

[BlueDan]

I just happened on this the other day interesting to see the process, even if I'm likely to never do it.

 

[blu73]

cool video's.. find myself sat here thinking, 'I could do that!!' lol

 

[centoproject]
