(1/7) > >>

mudflap:
i have a old 1.6 efi 16v lwb jlx vitara. shes a mot fail and i only paid £40 for her that was for the petrol already in the tank. has anyone done a bobtail or cut away up to the b piller and sorten the back of the chassis. as i was thinking of doing this for some fun. and adding a roll cage. and making a diy lift kit for her. As i say this is for a laugh. to use at my mates farm and maybe a pay n play day if i was aloud???

e.g. yer feel free to make fun

wrecker:

keep us updated tho,love to see it being done

Bunnie:
what does she look like normally?

also what did she fail the MOT on?

with our zuki there is some rust patches on the rear seat mounts so we just took the seats out... no problem passed mot straight through. so now with the roof off she looks like a little truck.

however there are a few guys on either 4x4 without a club or themes valley 4x4 that have some made little zukis..

theres a few pictures in my gallery under Fulmer and Speen..

Evilgoat:
Watch body mounts etc, not sure where they are but Suzota and Gen-X will be able to tell you. Also you'll need to do something about the fuel tank etc.

You will only have failed on rust if its near seat/body mounts or something obvious and easilly fixed...

Or the chassis is rotten.

Remeber that your car is going to take more of a pounding offroad then the MOT ever takes account for. If you have rotten chassis components fix them, after all, if it folds up its your life. Using it as a playtoy doesnt alter the saftey aspects, you still need belts that arent going to tear out of the bodywork and chassis members that arent going to cave in.

You may be better breaking it. A vit engine is worth about £200 notes!
