'60 Plate Skoda Octavia VRS, 3 Day Overhaul! With Pics!

Post by killer passat »

Well I do a fair few cars but rarely put pics up of other people's car but this one I enjoyed!

It's a freinds taxi and really needed someTLC!

Was looking in a very sorry state! Lost its shine and needed a bit of a tidy.

Image


Was suppose to be a quick wheel refurb but things got a little crazy! (As any enthusiasts car does)

So borrowed some temp wheels

Image

And pics of the wheels! LOOKING REALLY BAD

And after a really good sanding down and trying to get them right this is what we have (dont use filler)

Image

Ready for a lick of paint.....

Suppose to be silver but like I said, will a car nut leave anything standard? Lol

Image

Image

Also painted the inside of the dish and made it nice and SHINEY even though it probably won't be seen much lol

Image


Any way this got us thinking .....

Armed with more black paint this is what happened next lol

Image

Image


Pulled grill out for this one and de masked as soon as paint was still wet (gave a much sharper line )

Image

And wrapped front grill gloss black (taxi and lots of stone chips)
Really should have wrapped bottom of bumper but oh well, look better painte lol

Image

New badge needs sticking on

Image

Image

Next up think he's gonna get coil overs and drop it a little with some very light smoke headlight tint..

Not bad for a quick job.

What do you guys think?
