C2 Evolution

[rohrl]

Top work. I'm going to e-mail a link to Will at PPC magazine on Monday and urge him to put this car in the mag. This country needs more of this sort of thing.

[GPS M-Jet]

Absolutely tremendous. This is possibly my favourite project that I've seen so far on PH!

[gsd2000]

love your style

[AlexRS2782]

Pure madness - love it

[Alx323]

This is fantastic

[DHE]

You sir are a nutter. Thanks for posting, great project.

[willsmith22]

Thanks for all the kind replys yes it is a silly project but im now well aware you only live once soo thought i best get on with it, it went together fairly well i just measured up the widths of the cars and cut to suit,going to have it as a road\track car, inside the car i was going to keep the standard evo recaro seats as they just bolt to the floor but they are too heavy for liking,im keepin the evo dash and a few bits of trim round the handbrake and gear stick and maybe carpet where your feet go

[Aydogflipper]

Amazing project i shall be keeping my eye on this. Well done!

[willsmith22]

Got some 4pot brembos off evo5 but they were too big for the other rims but had these off my other evo they are just a different offset to clear the claiper,

Got the exhaust fabricated up using the exhaust off the evo cut down and a couple of bends welding in, and made a rolled tip for it out of some round bar welded round

I went for loud side of things as gettin a back box in there was tight




so thats where im at with the car now,the front bumper will have the grills back not the holes you see there


Thanks for looking Will
ps Built in Yorkshire

Insanely brilliant, can't wait to see the finished thing. Needs a video or two when its done!

[MG CHRIS]

WOW what a brilliant project does look like standared c2 until you look under the bonnet. There is another c2 with 2 v6 engines in who is a poster on here. If i had the time and space i would do a 6r4 replica.

[Gingernuts]

that exhaust is going to be ridiculous! no silencers?? looks brilliant, only thing i would change is the rear lights and some more subtle wheels!

[Max M4X WW]

I think the rear lights add to it, I was thinking about putting Lexus lights on my 'sleeper' Fiesta!

That is going to be mental loud, which tracks area you thinking of taking it to?

[(steven)]

I love this

[Disco You]

You are a brilliant madman.

[The Nur]

I love this. My first car was a 1.4 c2 in Posi blue. To do something like this would have been awesome but I am lacking in certain areas such as funds, skills, etc

It looks from behind

And please, for the love of god, videos.

[willsmith22]

Well the exhaust has sort of a middle box thing not sure if it will quieten the job down if its too loud i will fab a silencer to run along side the prop, the tracks that are local to me will be Croft,Cadwell,Bylton will be a while before it sees the track tho

[anonymous-user]

There is one photo we definitely need, the tears/quizzical look of the first sports car driver you confuse the st out of as you destroy then in what appears to be a C2

I agree, I think the OP needs to go with a sort of reverse-sleeper look, so mod the exterior as a typical crap Barry effort - stickers that say "Carlsberg", "Dominos" and so on below the side repeaters, badged as a VTS 24v GTI M5 and so on. People will look and think "Christ, there's another daft bd in his 1.1SX".

Then he will disappear very, very quickly...

Either that, or paint it up the same colours as the Xsara rally car.
