Haaaaaa!!! you not looked at the sellers name? there all mine them guys lmao!!! Uncle owns a scrappers and i go and go mental on the Puntos, take all the alloys off and i came across those abarths they were off the car within... 5 seconds :D:D i took the tyres off cause they were CRAP!! i asked a mate how much he could refurb them £20 per wheel and he said they will look NEW so... i arranged to get all this done then i thought 4 tyres would cost what 150-200?? so my dad said im taking too much room up and with work and all that i dont have all the time to do all that so im selling them decent little project for someone and i have dropped the asking price to £145!! like £35 an alloy! if you need any alloys sporting ones especially ive got loads!! they all range in price depends on damage and tyres. Im looking for an abarth spoiler in black so if anyone has one lay in the shed ive got some £££ waiting cheers guys!

i dont use airguns on lower strut bolts anymore as it always ends in cussing for me i use a ratchet bar
you really only need a windy gun to undo the strut top bolts and lower shocker rear bolts but you could get these wizzed of at a local garage by asking pretty please then just putting them on a full turn and drive home sensibly because unless you go over a humpback bridge and fly then the worst that can happen is you will get a bit of banging coming through the car

assuming you live within a 3 mile radius of a wizzy gun garage
 
the bottom strut bolts - mine were nasty
luckily the cheesed but came undone at the same time

good squirt with penatrating fluid will help

No heat as its right by the CV and Bottom ball joint cover

so shocks treatment and lube it up

Copper grease is your friend when refitting tho

Quick update on the car... timing belt changed ! Anyone on here who could fit a full suspension??

How much for a decent set of sporting alloys? with or without tyres, im not too bothered:)
 
Any guys who could fit a full suspension on my car in the Bolton/Manchester area cash waiting?? Id do it myself just need an air gun much quicker :rolleyes:
 
Update: wheyy not been on here in a while... happy with the Punto now all the suspension has been fitted, shes driving like a DREAM :cool: looking to do a few jobs soon new brake pads and discs also going to throw on a new induction kit and a good clean :yum:
 
I know i need to clean it up again and get a load of new pictures she is looking sweet at the moment. The HGT suspension was availble the 1.8 Abarth for cheap so i got it pretty low at the front handles more better for me (y) Like i said though once im back from my holidays im looking at getting something like a 1.4 Sporting Grande Punto, just had my insurance quote back for this at £46 a month which is good.
