Dimma 306

Just got a read through the last few updates, this is going to awesome! Great to see iconic cars like this being preserved and enjoyed.

David said the rear beam was knackered which wasn’t surprising. Full rebuild kit coming for it. All the above is going to be left like new. Akin to something like this:

The above is from a Saxo Dave recently had his mitts on.

This is a “Group A” pedal - I’m not on what that is but I’m assuming the throttle is a good bit wider or maybe it’s more offset to the right to avoid big feet messing things up!

The modified insert for the strut looking rather crusty. Thought process here is we are going for a setup that will allow adjustment to caster and camber. I’ll be keeping these though as you can’t get them now - question is what to do with them??

Maybe V6 dad’s China Blue and Dimma it…

Crazy to see the car this way but it should be epic!!

It’s the little touches brought in by David that I’m loving! This is part of the spare wheel holder. Earlier pictures you’ll get a better overall idea.

Nothing crazy to report just she’s on a spit now.

Some rust issues but David reckons nothing overly serious and certain nothing to worry about which is great.

Car has now tripled in value with the finding of this… ex-works car now, practically.

Interestingly I found a Dimma in Belgium which is a steel bodied car like mine but it’s got the decals and a GTI-6 engine. Guy is looking €40k Obviously that’s mental money for the car and what it is advertised for means nothing but interesting none the less.

Just need Flints signature on it now to complete the list.

Ah now we can’t overload the yoke with such greatness.
