Cleaning Commences

The Rallye is gone now so I can get to work on this car. Cleaned the top of one of the wishbone mounts today, I'll leave you to guess which is which. Gives you an idea of how dirty the rest of the bay is:

Rallye Rear Towing Eye

One of the things that I had on the to do list was chopping out the standard rear towing eye and repairing the rear member is is attached to. In my first rounds of work on the car it was evident that the panel was rotten, but I didn't have the expertise to tackle it.... Continue Reading →

Peugeot 106 Rallye S2 8v Update
