Do you have a homologation cab?. I figure you call it S200? Noticed the extra inforcement in door space ore do you build from a regular 205?

Anyway it seems to be a100% true replica!?

 

[Ced1610 5]

i have done a mix…

- front s200 ( for having lights monted on frame

- rear evo2 ( more easy for me with the info i had…)

 

it was a 205 XL… 2 month ago… 3 month now…

 

i do not want to overtake your thread, if you have mp, i can send you what i know…

Yesterday was like wayking up from a wonderfull dream and realise its raining outside….always.

 

I have seen a true replica and hats off!!!

 

Nothing else to do than go back to ones own saltmine and continue working.

 

Brakes are done. Audi A8 discs and calipers with homemade brackets. I will probably weld the brackets to the hub later. Its mockup discs, I have freebased the Subaru pattern on the Audi discs.

The right way to go is to change the hub pattern to Peugeot. Then its possible to change weels between my cars and it looks more correct.

Tomorrow I will do the final welds on the rear frame.

Nice job, with this removable part, maintenance will be more easy…

i’m amazed how you mix all different brand, with at the end all working parts together…

[Berglundracing 25]

Todays work…. Final weld of rearframe. Next decision is how to mount the drivetrain. From start I planned to have it solid but now I leaning towards polyuretan instead

[Berglundracing 25]

Buildprocess little slow right now……

Working on the doors beacouse I would like to have some parts 100% done. I will even paint them and add some grafhix.

Hello Thomas… EWT is the white used those years…

but i prefer the modern EWP, that is more « white »……

 

congratulation for your job

I had my gti resprayed in EWP and it looks so much better than EWT. 

 

Keep up the good work! 

[Berglundracing 25]

Thanks Cedrik and Wicked! EWP it will be!

 

I have recived the parts for gearbox and diffs and testfitted them. Some struggle with angel for left rear inner driveshaft witch get to big angle. Could move engine more to the right but this is not good fore weight balance. Could also raise the topmounts on rear suspension but it require som heavy welding on the tubular frame. I will search for more flexible driveshaft for starter. The one I got is from VW rear syncro.

Im searching for some suiteble polyuretan buchings to build engine mounts. The diffs probably will be solid. Have a hardyplate to rear diff and to the front the center driveshaft is flexible with cv joints and rubber mounted halfway.

Dont want to many vibrations from the engine though its not a 100% racecar. Also wants to go shopping icecream on holydays…..

[Berglundracing 25]

Thanks Goodlack for the sandblaster!

Now I can continue with final welding

[Berglundracing 25]

Have made some engine/gearbox brackets with polyuretan bushings

Its only basecoat so far……..little to big mirror compared to stock
