Some neat spots in the last week or so
-
Okay maybe a bit longer. But i hqvent been crazy active here.
-
@peter_black Peugeot 206CC is quite the find for you.
-
@pip-bip @Peter_Black I'm confused. It came out 21 years ago so I suppose it's possible to be an import into Canada. I'm not sure why a 206 CC was chosen but I love that it's here.
-
@whoistheleader certainly different. be one hell of a bugger to get parts when the roof mechanism fails.
-
@pip-bip Yeah, that confusing genre of small cabriolet only ever had one car here in this decade that I can remember. The VW CC is a fine car but maybe they wanted something more the size of a Geo Metro convertible but with a hardtop.
-
@peter_black flexing that new bulkhead on the LR
-
@peter_black Oh wow, that Peugeot 206 is not something you see everyday here!
-
@tysmagic Right? Like... I knew they were now available with galvanizing for the repros, but this is the first one I've seen installed with "natural finish" as it were. Interesting effect - catches the eye.
-
@ramblinrover seems to be a bit of trend to leave all of the new bits unpainted. Can't say I'm a big fan
-
@tysmagic It's just lazy IMHO, plus it's going to look like shit down the road.
-
@tysmagic It's not as fun as leaving a Series in full patchwork hobo mode with all the panels you've replaced from this or that donor or have repainted out of order.
Although in fairness, I didn't have mine with a yellow driver's door, mostly red sides, blue front fender tops, and different blue rad support and firewall for very long.I am part of the "rear crossmember should be black and not left galv dammit" club.
-
@ramblinrover I mean, I'm 50 shades of white atm so I can respect the patch work lol
-
@tysmagic That is what we call "patina"
-
@tysmagic I'm slowly un-hoboing the Galaxie from some sections with decayed gold and some sections of decayed silver (color change when the clearcoat came off - shitty respray), and some sections of decayed silver + funk.
This of course means it now has some sections of fresh gold, some sections of dead differenter gold, some sections of dead silver-gold, some sections of blackish silver (few now) and some sections of primer. Oy. -
@bloody-the-resident-shitposting-saffer yeah, that's it! lol
-
@ramblinrover that's the fun part! Once it's all one color you'll be scared to drive it
