Episode 13: Let there be paint! Meanwhile, at the paintshop - the car finally sees some fresh Miami Blue paint! Yay! http://photos.cybernck.com/albums/205gtifore16ver/205gtifore16ver_085.thumb.jpg http://photos.cybernck.com/albums/205gtifore16ver/205gtifore16ver_086.thumb.jpg http://photos.cybernck...

Episode 12: 205. Un sacré numéro. After a "Winter sleep", in May of 2014 I finally managed to find a bodyshop that has agreed to do a bare-shell respray of the 205, so it was time to get it out of the garage and do some more parts stripping and then finally make a move forwards, in every ...

Episode 11: Solid foundation Back at the panel beater's, the car has had most of the major body work done. Facial reconstruction surgery complete. The red arrows are there to sway your attention towards removable lower section, for ease of maneuvering the engine in at a later date. http://photos.cy...

Hehe, thanks. Me too!

Episode 10: Paste Ta-daa! Inner wheel arch welded on, as well as the new headlamp panels. Looks infinitely better than the old mix of filler and rotten metal! Pretty seamless transition of the car's chassis and the new part - it will look as new when it sees some paint. http://photos.cybernck.com/a...

Episode 9: Cut The car arrived at the body shop and it was time to finally start going in the direction of having a rust-free 205 shell. http://photos.cybernck.com/albums/205gtifore16ver/205gtifore16ver_057.thumb.jpg The chassis had been pulled back to OEM specification, doors put back on using lar...

Episode 8: One Horse Power During my hunt for parts, I managed to find just what I need - NOS replacement headlight panels! I've also finally managed to acquire an "auto bonnet" - i.e. a bonnet off of a 205 Automatic. It's not in the best shape, but it's crucial for my vision of this car ...

Episode 7: Awakening Most of the 2013 went by without having anything done on the car, purely because I couldn't find anyone to take on the work of fixing the chassis and rust patches. However, near the end of the year, it was time to continue the restoration work. http://photos.cybernck.com/albums...

Episode 6: Winter sleep With the weather turning for worse, the last thing I set out to do was removing the engine block and gearbox to have the engine bay ready for better inspection. http://photos.cybernck.com/albums/205gtifore16ver/205gtifore16ver_033.thumb.jpg http://photos.cybernck.com/albums/...

What an epic trip! Glad you all got back fine.

I didn't know about that statue in Dubrovnik, haha.

And just a correction - Bosnia is not a muslim country by any stretch of imagination.
49% is a Serb Republic, while 51% is a Muslim-Croat Federation. And even Mostar
is half-muslim half-croatian.

Kotor .

Until we don't physicaly drive through and out of Bosnia it's not too late:) Actually we still don't know which route we'll take. Few of us will probably stay longer in Croatia which means that at some point ( probably on Saturday the 4th of May ) we'll split somewhere in Montenegro and those who a...

I was going to suggest a much better Route through Bosnia, but it's probably too late now?

When are you planning on driving through here?

Episode 5: The king... beheaded After a failure with a GTI-6 engine idea, I continued the actual work on the car, by removing its (non-)original engine. I've had a good idea of what I was doing (hint: a light bulb above my head) :-). http://photos.cybernck.com/albums/205gtifore16ver/205gtifore16ver...

Episode 4: Shock and horror - continued Just as I was going to start the work on the car, I stumbled across a XU10J4RS engine for sale. It wasn't really looking nice to begin with but since this type of engine is extremely rare where I live, I just had to buy it. A plan of a modern-engined 205 with...
