Managed to find a unit to rent to do the build in so with the long weekend coming up I'll be looking to get the strip of the donor sorted. It's about a 15 minute drive away so close enough. Not cheap but it's only for a max of 5 months.

Is there a guide anywhere? Or is it a case of using the Haynes manual?

Lots of ideas in my head at the moment as to how I want to do the build. I quite like Hilltops' Race/Rally style and might use some of his ideas.

Car will be black (think I've decided for sure) as that is the donor colour and I'll be painting myself and it saves painting engine bay, door shuts etc.

Steel Wheels - 17" (any cons over 16"?)

New seats

Nubodis dash and dials (probably)

New exhaust - dual twin as seems to be the standard

Has anyone done anything about the ICE? I'm thinking something hidden / stealth that I can listen to when moving but hidden if people looking in.

Needs to be finished by mid Sept as latest as I'm driving it to Spain.

That is about as much thinking as I've done. Once I start I'm sure I'll be firing the questions in!
