Typhoon ZTT - Changes So Far

RoverRobson · 21st April 2016, 09:59

So here's my Typhoon ZTT. Bought a few month back with 18" Straights that were shot, and was a overall mess.

Originally registered BX53UMC.

I have upgraded a lot of the colour coded stuff to chrome now. Just need to wrap the front and rear bumpers along with the tailgate. The paint was chipping away from the colour coded stuff, so either way, I was going to have to get it changed. The offside rear trim was also siliconed on and was a mess.

Starting to look somewhere near to what I want it to now. A lot of folk are against chrome on a ZT, but I think it reflects its history. MGA's and B's are filled with chrome! Oh and I've fitted it with a set of Starspokes.

Need to also wrap the rest of the window frames and then my next job is to spray the dashboard in typhoon. Let me know your thoughts 😎

Cars looking very nice, like the roof rails painted

Really nice but the alloys do make it lean towards a more '75' looking car. Some nice 11 spokes or apex alloys would set that off beautifully. Each of us an individual so it's down to personal taste.

Yeah a lot of people said that - main reason for these alloys as I grabbed these refurbished with brand new tyres for £200. Couldn't grumble!

However I may be looking to swap/part X for some refurbished 11 spokes or apex's etc.

Alloys look great on your car imo.

Certainly looking a lot better than it looked in previous ownership, well done!

Totally agree with that.

Ah so you guys recognise this car then!

Haha thanks chaps. Big changes coming to this car in the coming future (styling wise).

Some more updates, and a mock up press pic. She's starting to turn heads now. Bought some apex alloys to fit. Interior is also undergoing some modifications which will be revealed shortly
