Troy's btcc replica gsi

[btcctroy]

Open the window Lol.... I may duct it under the dash to outside at a later date when I've had my dash flocked

[btcctroy]

I'd rather have the window open then have engine smells coming through the vents.
I couldn't think of another way of doing it without water and everything else coming in

[btcctroy]

Spent another evening cutting the car to bits and I've established I think I'm a bit ruthless..... Just need to rebuild whats no longer there.

[Envoy CDX]

Ouch, oh well, it'll keep you happy whilst you're welding

[btcctroy]

More rust cut out. Wow Cavs seriously rot in places you can't see.

[cavaliersri130]

Looks good that you could start to market those for all cavs.
God I didn't see all the other work nice one m8 your really coming along with that.

[btcctroy]

More rust.


I'm looking forward to getting this area rebuilt as I knew it was bad. I wonder what some of the members on here are hiding...
Anyhow I need to rebuild some of the chassis leg before I cut anymore out as it's very weak.
Started cleaning some of the edging

[Envoy CDX]

I can relate to that Troy. It will come to an end one day I am sure!

But yeah, new clean metal soon enough

[btcctroy]

Should have the whole area repaired by Sunday or hoping so

Rinse and repeat for the other side?

[btcctroy]

Other side has been done lol

[Gray16v]

Great work Troy as always

[Envoy CDX]

Other side has been done lol

Hell, I must have missed that one. :/

[humbucker]

Good job, and top marks for the detailed pics showing the rot. A WIP ain't a WIP without the bad bits - the calm before the storm!

[btcctroy]

I must admit I was shocked for a second but then got over it and moved on

Been there.

Aye, detail is always good.

Thats some nasty rust youve found there. Like you say i would bet that 90% of the cavs on here have rust just as bad but its all hidden.

I know you like cutting rust out so you must be loving it lol

Just as well eh!

[Lowrider Dave]

That's a fair amount of cut'n'replace going on, and most of it in awkward places - well done sir!

[planetc]

Nothing phases Troy, he's like Zorro

[btcctroy]

Well today I've started to rebuild what's no longer there and u must say it was a challenge
The actual chassis structure once again looks something LIle

[btcctroy]

Spent another hour rebuilding

[TurboDan]

Im sure youl have it all done this weekend.

[btcctroy]

Bloody hope so

[Envoy CDX]
