Topic #34290 108 posts Started by audio-one
Thanks guys... to be hones this car was only mean't to be a quick bodykit and spray job then out on the road advertising my company.... its no so far gone past that i don't know where i am gonna end up going with it but i know i'm gonna have alot of original parts left over:)

Filler relocation is straight forward if you can live with losing boot space... just need to fab a smetal pipe that will go through the boot floor and then a rubber pipe to connect to tank...

Well we have had a long hard look at the progress we have made so far and decided that we haven't gone far enough with the work... as a company we wanna push ourselves as far as we can...

So we are starting from scratch... watch this space

oooh! i wana see! laugh.gif from what ive seen so far, i think its gonna be good! tongue.gif
this is looking like it could turn out to be one of the most unique and clean 6gc's that i have ever seen, your doing good work
Still no pics yet...

I can tell you that the car will have no air con, no heating system, no washer bottle or windscreen wipers, no sunroof, no side windows and possibly no steering wheel:)

Made a decision to build a car with no compromise which also means that it isn't gonna be able to pass our MOT test laws so she will be purely a show piece

All I have in this world is my Balls and my Word and I'm not breaking em for no one,- Tony MontanaTeam 6gc 2005
edit i'd also like to know more on the process of that fiberglass hatch
I love it, and Hate it.

Being the only celica ive seen this custom, but also only pure show car.

I am a thief.do not buy anything from me.
Fair comment....

Problem i'm up against is that i own a company that specialise in doing this... thus if i do just an off the shelf bodykit and stock interior then my company will be judged on that...
The car was always going to be an excercise in how far we could push ourselves, unfortunately some of the technical mods we want to do will mean it'll never be road legal...

Expect the next car we build to be fully road legal as this one will have proved its point... and showed what a great flexible car the gen 6 is...

At the minute we plan to fabricate everything so it should turn out pretty unique...

Anybody want anymore info on anything they see on the car just pm me and i'll be happy to tell you how to do it

The part where i circle, like weather strip piece. Will you have to replace it? and how did you take out the rear window out? thanks. cuz mine is bad or looks burnt.

<--- I miss :'' (
The piece you circled will all be contoured and smoothed to match as no side glass will be put back in...

Rear window is still in tailgate... all windows are bonded in so its a case of feeding a wire through the bond and slicing through the bonding...

Do you plan on rienforcing the car after removing the b pillar? if not I hope you dont plan on driving it on the road. That is really sacrificing the integrity of the car in a roll over or side impact. The car will crumble like a piece of paper supported only by the a and c pillars
