Hey Guys, Well this is my project i been cracking on with over winter, it came back from the sprayers on sunday so thought id chuck some pics up for those interested (even tho its not a smallie  ) Bought it about 6 months ago for 500 quid, its a 2000 w reg px 200 disc model but had a 125 engine in and had hand brushed on camo style paint and needed a bitta bodywork. Sold my primmy new years day so needed to get this on the road asap really, biggest hold up was the spraying (4weeks) done by a mate as and when he could fit it in.   |

and now the paint - its a really hard colour to photograph and the light wasnt very good at all, so sorry for the pics and i can appreciate if people dont like it. ;D The colour is a dark grey / blue / green. its a audi colour that changes in differnt light, its quite strange. again sorry for the pics, will grab better ones once its built and and its an ok day out side      nice shine on it too ;D |

first thing to hit the skip was the fuckin gippin px lego brick rear light !! fuckin rancid thing  Opted for a more period sprint rear light as i think the VBB light looks shite on anything but a vbb/GS etc yet so many people use them on the px   also got the engine in and wired up, just need to cable up (which i hate doing  ) then crack on with the fun stuff. will update next few days |

Cheers Yeah it's a real nice colour in the flesh bit utter shite to photograph :/ I choose the colour to be different but works well with the red rims and whitewall and like you said nice to see another colour instead of black Having a few headaches with floor runners ATM and few other bits but hopefully finished by the weekend |

Haha! Yeah I put them on just for the pic. Usually do rebuilds naked tho Put legsheild trim on today, Jesus what a job that was, 1 hour ! Got it on in with no kinks or bends so happy. Noticed front calliper is sticking a bit so will have to sort that out as well as spray the hub and shock black, new speedo cable to go in and lots of other little bits to do. Noticed side panels, glove box and horncast has lots of dust in the paint :/ so getting sent back to sprayer do more hold ups. 1 step forward, 3 back springs to mind |
