My Clubman 1275 GT

Post by D.M.G.T »

Here is my 1275 GT..I bought this car a bit over a year ago from our western region rep..this first picture is from when i bought the car..
Image

Since then i added new doors,and windows and welded the odd patch here or there.. a full new interior,including headlinig,carpets,seats.and dash and dials..i also added new group 5 arches.(think they suit the clubby real well) and a full respray keep the same original colour denim blue i also paintitd the roof denim blue 2 was navy before that just didint go with anything..

Image

I also had to replace sum of the front panel.

Image

and after..

I am also considering changing from deep dish 12's to tens..just some wheels in mind..not keeping them white though..

Image

and another.

Here is a pic from the clubby just after it got sprayed..
