im sure i recognise that number plate,is it going to be a track and road car?

It's one of the first LC's - certainly an ex SEAT UK car... I was going to say it was one of the 'track' cars but they were all Y plates.

Probably ex press.

Nice one, there's money in selling the leather interior for sure.
There very heavy too so would start off by stripping it out.
Mines a 210BHP LCR.
It's still on the standard map and with it being stripped out its a match for stage 2 LCR's

Looking forward to seeing the progess on it.
a stripped out one looks a bit like this

Good start buddy.

Get the heat gun and thinners out and get rid of the sound deadening.

Get the badges off the rear too, more weight ;)

You going for plastic windows?
I see your inner door skins are gone already.
Have you removed the window carriers and screwed the glass inplace?
