Cinquecento my green cinq project.

[centoproject]

the intention is for it not to be cramped lol as for white i like it but its just not reflective lol

 

[Honeymonster]

Thought you were going the original colour?

However that should make a really nice contrast if you'r engine is brightly coloured with lots of shiny bits.

It's going to be interesting to see who ends up with the smoothest and most shiny bay between you and Whitz. Nothing like a bit of friendly competition to keep each other motivated.

 

[whitz]

shame i cant get sheet as shiny as the plate

but its deffo on

[Petento]

Looking good dude keep it up

 

[BlueDan]

Are you two going to try and fit the heater box inside somewhere, or do without it?

Could have left it in, but make a nice shiny plate in place of the fluffy sound insulation stuff, and route the pipes out of the bottom instead of the side/front.

im looking at either a caravan yes caravan heat exchanger lol or a small 12v heater blower built into the dash


hear is another nice color




:yum:

 

[centoproject]

small update on filler progress lol was going to upload but takes ages with large size pictures



messy

 

[Honeymonster]

Prefer the grey to the blue unless you're repainting the whole car chap. It's a really nice colour but I can't see it working with the green.
Grey however is very tasty indeed.

Love those plates Whitz but how about some stainless dome head bolts rather than the lockers on the pedal plate. You can always use threadlock if you're worried about them shaking lose.

 

[centoproject]

I agree I like the grey probly go for that then lol i will be working on filler tomorrow thinking of welding the heater hole up

 

[centoproject]

not much to update about ended up tidying garage for more room also compleetly striped the 1.2 8v engine not bad at all considering it has done 127.000 miles

 

[centoproject]

punto 60 crankshaft in 16v block to reduce compression ratio ?

 

[centoproject]

not the best but not bad whitz

 

[Cento Painter]

Your most certainly putting in some effort !!! 10/10 for that alone .

 

[centoproject]

taa pal i will get some more done today

 

[centoproject]

Got some more done today doesn't look much but it will be smooth nice finish i hope lol

 

[m5haw]

looking good fella looks like you have been busy

 

[whitz]

nice work BUT id highly advise not to fill in around the strut tops where it sits onto the inner wings and the step next to the battery tray as with flex the filler will more then likely crack

also i used fiber glass filler with a smaller skim of p40 as if damaged it hold up better

Ash

 

[centoproject]

i see i will maby use bumper filler as it is more flexable

Good luck keeping that clean, although I sure it would look tasty. I've never owned one of the 16v engines but if it's anything like an 8v if oil stops leaking out of it, there's none in it.
