Thank you sir, it will be one of last times out this year before a winter rebuild and tidy up, bit of a shame about the rain and the flood of police presence, but I understand why after the crash last time.

C2 back in for winter rebuild and some uprated parts


Engine is coming out for a rebuild and new clutch

Ayc pump is coming off and being removed for good

All rear subframe is coming off to make way for a tubular jobbie

All dash, heater box and trim which is not needed is coming out, im aiming to go a bit more balls out with it

Boot floor to cut out, I want it flat, it never looked right with a bit of spare wheel well in it

Cusco Lsd to get rid of the AYC

Iv got plenty to do thanks for looking Will

A bit of work in progress fitting a super1600 kit,

Removal of the old rear quarters




Trial fitting the fibre glass




Inner arch fabricated to meet up to fibreglass

The kit is dwarfing the wheels at the min but it will come good in the end,
Thanks Will

This is the C2 I dreamed about when I was 17, no joke hehe

Apologies if this has been asked before but have you decided what colour it is going to be when it is finished?

hi was thinking of painting it red or white or the blue it is now as I quite like the colour, red as it was works rally car colour and the white was if it ever got stickered up anything goes with the white and then you always pull the stickers off and leave it blank

thanks will

+1 is a bit of a shame that its no longer a sleeper, that said if its painted in the original colour and fitted with some standard looking wheels I don't think it will stand out too much

Even with the wide arches, unless it's on Evo wheels I think it'll just be taken for a bodykitted C2 by the vast majority. wink

I would've loved to do something like this with my old Citroen C4. thumbup

Did you ever manage to finish the C2? Have you taken it on the track or stage?

Expensive box of bits



Rear bumper on after being reshaped it fitted badly then was too short as well so cut it and fibreglassed it back together




Thanks Will
