Todays Progress

Evening all.
So today I've spent a bit of time on the Zed. As some of you will have seen before, it has been on a bit of a diet, but today I decided to take it a bit further.
The idea is to try and make the car weigh as little as I can. Bucket seats will be in there next, as the standard seats are pretty heavy.




Also had the paint out today, won't be to everyones taste but I quite like it.

talking the roof lining out is one thing i would not do from past experience.

your car will get so much condensation now, especially in the winter... try and put it back in

I'm hoping it'll be alright, it wasn't too bad last winter.
Can only wait and see.

not a fan of the paint to be fair but if you are on a diet, the front seats are a good thing to lose as they are pretty heavy!!

You can go a lot further - swap front window winders for manual ones from a 1.4 R400/civic, aircon, front door cards, cubby box/arm rest, less paint, door step trim, fluffy dice.............

Thank you Sir, that's exactly what I'm doing. Plus, I've always liked to do things differently to everyone else.
