Liquid yellow detail

Wow! Now that is a clean luggage compartment. Simply stunning. :salut:

Issue is I don't think you will ever want to drive it now.........
 
Very, very nice Sam!!

Love the wheel shot! I didnt realise the ph2 wheels had a different finish on the inside to the phase one wheels. Its much duller on the phase one (unless those wheels had been refurbed?).

The question is, what are you doing to do now as it will painful getting it dirty again after all that effort!

She has indeed, currently just over 17000 (can't remember the exact mileage) and of course this was the Evo car. During my ownership I've just gone to great extents and expenditure bringing 264 into pristine condition . . . from buying new parts too hours cleaning.

The front luggage area is a work of art now, the arches / suspension are also crazy clean as well. I have over 80 images but uploading takes forever as there over 4 mb in size so the ones in Photobucket are a taster.

Duncan the wheels have been refurbished earlier this year by Scott, new centre caps and bolts were also bought at the time. They are standard OEM finish though, just many layers of wax and sealant.

I know what you mean about getting dirt, the car will never see winter roads hence she's been transported to the storage facility. I even have pictures of that ;)
 
:bow: That looks awesome...would love to see a LY Vee in the metal someday.

Maybe just the inspiration I need to get stuck into my Vee over the Christmas holidays...

What a fantastic job has been done, its perfect. Looking at the photos again this morning I have a renewed love for LY! Fancy a swap!!??! lol

It certainly will be easy to keep on top of keeping it clean now, especially with all that wax.
 
I was saying to Colin I do love Mars and I have your photos on my laptop of our cars from Prescott.

Unfortunately I won't be enjoying 264 anymore, the car will be up for sale . . . whether this is sold behind the scenes or gets offered to the general public will unfold in the coming weeks.

Biggest mistake in life so far is that I should have taken a loan out, all my cash is stored in her and in the Summer I'll be looking to purchase my first house. I've been saving to see if I can keep 264 but I haven't managed to save enough [smilie=icon_cry.gif]

But . . . . hopefully I'll have enough for a phase 1 so I won't be going anywhere.
 
I have the pic of our cars side by side at prescott as my desktop. They complement each other so well!!

Sad to hear your letting her go. I went through the same thing when i brought my house so i understand. Wish you all the best with the sale and house purchase!

fingers crossed you do get yourself a nice phase 1!!
