TWIN TURBO PROJECT (Bella & Chloe)

[twinturbo]

My twin turbo project

Mechanicals by Casey Motorsport Petaluma

Body & Paint UACC Burlingame

Top turbo was originally from London (Bella)

Bottom turbo was originally from Italy (Chloe)

This will be a long project . I will update everyone with the details.

D' Brits parts all from CJ of Aftermarket Distributing

Whew! For what someone needs two turbos!? Well maybe one chamonix and one polaris but yours are like twins. Identical?

Most of us would be overwhelmingly happy with just one.

Maybe I'm just little bit jellous. ;-)

Ha ha I know but I got the 2nd one for such a deal. I love and admire the 2002 turbos. If ever I get a another chance to buy more Ill make them triplets =) I plan to restore one for show and one as a weekend driver. Maybe after these projects I will look for a white turbo to add to my collection. Then I have to change my username (jk)

Plus most of my cars are silver like the o2 turbo grandchild. My Dinan s14 turbo aslo was fully restored by Dinan and bare metal paint by UACC.

Besides of a blown motor and a tired exterior Bella is all original and nice and dry...

[twinturbo]

looking good at first and with a rebuilt motor Chloe is filled of surprises =(

She will go through a frame off re$to.

[twinturbo]

For Chloe lots of cleaning (undercoating) , cutting and welding of new pieces are being done.

[Tommy]

The car you snatched for less than 10 grand was in that shape!? Gosh, that's like a lottery win from the better end of line! It is the one sold through ebay just a while ago - right? Just beautiful - You lucky bastard! :-)

[twinturbo]

Now you know why someone has 2. =) Its more of a clean roller for the price. but she is now being rebuilt and restored.

Update Bella's factory paint is cracked all over. It will be stripped down to metal then reprayed while Mr Casey is rebuilding the motor.

[BLUNT]

Mr. Twin Turbo,

If by chance you feel that you don't need that many sets of wheels, I would not mind help you find space for them at my facility, where they would be lovenly cared for.

Please keep us in mind as you continue with this fantastic project of yours.

Kindest Regards,

Justin

Looks like $10.000 rust bucket. I thought we wear in a recession?

[twinturbo]

Oh no.. Its a $45k rust bucket. The 10k is the cleaner one....=)

Alvin,

Could you do the community a huge favor and post up some nice clear photos of how the factory modified the wheel arches for the flares? Thanks.
