Carl and Jonny's XUD Hillclimber
Yeah, the paint is heavy, but it's lighter than any other non slip solution. Plus it's nice and simple.

Probably, it's certainly cheaper!

Looking really good guys, great solution with the paint, take it it dries matte too?

Will be interesting to know how much paint you use in the end.

Would love to strip a 306 down to bare minimum. How much did all the sound deadening and underseal weigh?

In all honesty, no idea! A fair bit, at a guess maybe 20 kg?

Think this project is due an update.

The shell went on the perilous journey once again from Jonny's to mine.

[attachment=12792]

Next up, was to get it back to a rolling shell.

Started out the rear, with a re-built beam. If ever there was an advertisement to use a dummy shock, this is it. Ever so slight mis-calculation lol

[attachment=12793]

[attachment=12794]

[attachment=12795]

It is pretty cramped, but managed to fit it into the garage at mine. If anything major needs doing, we can just wheel it all like a wheel barrow and work away Smile

[attachment=12796]

Subframe is nearly there. Got some Avo's to go on it, hubs are pretty much sorted and then some droplinks are needed.

[attachment=12797]

[attachment=12798]

Feels much to better to be putting shiny bits on at long last!

Cold, wet, depressing winter sucked my motivation tbh.

I'm having issues getting to the coilovers back together, so that's why it's not a rolling shell yet unfortunately.

Just need it to be summer and smell the burning rubber at a few shows to give me a kick up the backside!
