Hi all some of you have seen my brothers sud ti .
I thought I would post some pics for him as his car is currently being stripped and repaired for a respray in a nice metallic red by jaguar called Italian racing red on the new jaguar xf.
Here is a couple of pics.

Pic s of before strip down.

Nice Sud!

After he had it repaired because there was some ripples in the wings and rear quarters.

Now in primer ready for painting tomorrow.

This is the colour it's going it's a jaguar colour called Italian racing red .

This should look nice mate, well done

Looking forward to seeing this one, good effort there!

nice looking red there

very nice red, and i think it will suit the body kit well too.

but, i rather hope he will go a few steps backwards with those exhaust tailboxes!


theyre just not right! ha ha!!

What a lovely colour

It should look nice in that colour, he was going to do it 8c red but as that is a 3 stage pearl and a pain to paint and match should it get scratched .
I had at work a jaguar xfr in red so told my brother to come over and see and that was that he liked it.
He is getting it painted today so I will put some pics up later.
His sud is his pride and joy and also a good advert for his garage and with the exhausts he likes his car to be loud also.

Very nice colour, I was going to say why not 8c red. But as with all trick colours it's a lot of work. Looking forward to seeing this

Pics of shell painted today. Panels being done tomorrow.
These are pics my brother sent me but I'm hoping to go have a look tomorrow.




I will try and get some better ones tomorrow but it looks good.

In the sunlight.

Smashing colour!
Love it

Nice job

Slowly going back together.

Looks great, do you know what tread and wheels he has?

They are 16 inch wheels not too sure of size of tyres and make of wheels I will find out.

Looks fantastic - Great colour

Some more pics.

Fabulous work as always.

I'm not a fan of red as a rule but this car looks fantastic!

Wheels look like TSW Imola's to me, but, just about every wheel manufacturer has done a similar wheel to this in the past, and they are all very close.

Oz, Speedline, Fox, everyone!


If anyone wants some, TSW Imola's thats is, i know of a set in 15" x 7j, in gloss black powder coat, and in 4 x 98 pcd which is pretty hard to come by.

I can put you in touch with the owner if wanted.

While at my brothers garage today as he was doing a service on my honda frv (family car) I had a good look round his sud and I have to say it looks very nice.
Cannot wait to get mine done .
Pics.

Nice very nice indeed, what engine is in the car?

I'm guessing a 1.7 8 valve....

16V on carbs from memory.......if it's still the same car i've seen before?

Yep Kev's right 1.7 16v with twin 40s.

I love the exhausts-stainless steel?
