Dutch 205 1.3 Rallye Trackday racer

[arnold naber]

Hi,

First off all... sorry i dont speak a word french so i'll do it in crappy english :P

Short introduction of my self... Arnold, 26 and i'm a shopmanager in a local computershop in Emmen, the Netherlands.

I have a nice hobby garage with a friend of mine.. here some pics from our garage after we hosed it clean and painted it

we have a kitchen, toilet etc.. only thing missing is some heating but that;s solved with a gasheater



Here some pictures before the cleaning






after some hosing down and cleaning and painting

my friend after some cleaning..



Then i found my project...a 1.9 rallye on the local scapyard.. Bought it for allmost nothing..and started stripping it down...
Because i bought a house in the same period (what needed al lot..reallye alot of work) i didn't reallye go fast..

Because i completely stripped the car down i had to build it from scratch..After the house was finished (after 1,5 year !) i did some calculating and found out it was to expensive to get it driving again..would take some years and my main goal is driving..al thoug i like building :P But i had to choose..

I had bought some stuff for the 1.9 rallye.. a poly bonnet (reversed bump ) and a poly tailgate



And a nice poly sidescreen with intergrated rallye arches

And then i found a nice half build project....phoned the owner, made a appointment and took his whole garage empty :P



nice kayaba front and rear dampers :P

the eninge has been rebuild, and hasnt run yet..there is a sharp camshaft mounted which touches a cilinder.
Currently the car is with a sponsor of the dutch peugeot gti club with will make the motor running..
Whole front and has powerflex bushes..

update will follow when i got the car back.. the some stripping wil start.. to make room for a weld in cage.
I also started a website http://www.trackdayparts.nl to resel the bakerbm stuff.. Since i started my project a long time ago there is now a real boom of dutch racer projects that must have baker stuff on their cars

Well..

found some 205 1.1 fusee piece ( you know the big peice of metal where the driveshafts run through.)

I'll put new bearings in it..This makes it possibel to use 307 HDI brakes what i have laying around from the old 1.9 project. A bit overkill at the time

The kayaba shockers will be replaced with bilstein b6 dempers.. In that setup the car will be getting its MOT.. in the winter the 309 front will be placed.. (will use 309 1.4 driveshafts..)

I also have some stuff back from the powder coater.. niec and shiny

[arnold naber]

the kayaba dampers will be changed for bilsteins b6 dampers i all ready have..
car is currently with a dutch peugeot specialist to rebuild the eninge...when it is done the car will be stripped down for the roll cage etc.

Hey Arnold

[arnold naber]

Well a little update..

Got some Lenso DTM rims..got them refurb and powdercoated them..fitted R88's on them.

I want to make some centercaps with the rallye logo on them Think that would be a nice touch

Bilstein shockers has been mounted..only thing now is that its a bit high on its feet..i now have -3cm springs fitted think i need - 6 or something to slam it down
309 ARB fitted on the front. 307 brakes, complete rebuild rearbeam with 306gti trailing arms for a neg. camber.. solid reambeam mounts..


here some allmost finished pics



Things todo:

adjust the weber carbs so it runs smooth.. (needs choke now to run)
weld in the seat mountings
weld in the rollcage
orange front repeaters (oem look)

Since i bought a lot of stuff from the UK i started a webshop for 205 circuit cars http://www.trackdayparts.nl
i will have an adjustable pully for the 205 rallye in a few week for only €109,- !
