Bonjour
A few facts about me and my Bagheera. My name is Grzegorz. I'm a maintenance at work (electromechanic). I was Born in 1983 but She is 1980 - last year of production, in documents is Talboot Bagheera, We was meeting in 2022 in december. She was total demaged and roost, but She had someting inside what fascinated me (beautyfull line, coupe, rear wheel driwe, and engine inside axels and is made in France - i like Your cars).
My friends told me "go away it is scrap, it look like yellow wastebasket, You can't fix it, it is impossible, but i was think: not for me!! I can do it! But slowly, step by step...plan is for 10 year.
In first year i was build garage for She, and rescrew all car and made 100000000 foto. Then i had doubts: frame isn't exist, engine WHO know? Event dashboard is roosty inside, New parts, is difficult to buy and very expensive, and in my opinion road to orginal isn’t for us.
I was started looking for difrent way, and I found it. Down frame with squer tube, and rollcage on top. I inspired orginal frame, and dimmension, but i try make it stronger than oryginal. I hate roost, and i now! It is in colsed profile and between two metal parts, outside blasting isn’t enaugh, All old parts in my project, is blasting and painting inside, and outside.
Engine in my projekt is 3.0 v6 XFX made in PSA because coupe should have enaugh power. In my opinion 1.5 it’s good capacity to bottle of wather. Now i’m working at rollcage, and i will be happy when i finish the frame by the end of this year.
I’m working alone, and when i have free time. In first place is fammily, second work, next too is hobby.
Thanx for aproval. When i finished next step i’m sending fotos.
I have old engine, gearbox, axels, breaksand i don’t need this parts, if You need someting You can send me message.
Best Regards Grzegorz.
