The BX Project
Re: The BX Project
Well, a lot of time has passed since I last updated the #CitroenBX XPO build progress, but work continues.
Before work continues on the engine bay, I need to tackle the steering rack boots. And they are just the start of the problems!

Re: The BX Project
With so many corroded metal parts on XPO, I took a dive into DIY cleaning and plating.
Oh, how I wish I had just let grown-ups do it!

With the windscreen surround repaired and new glass in, the focus moves to the scuttle. Refitting the blower, washer bottles and a small welding repair.

Citroën BX – XPO – Electrics Pt1 – Eps33
While the A-pillar rebuild on the XPO project seemed like a big challenge, restoring the electrics has proven far more taxing.

Citroën BX – XPO – Interior Installation – Eps34
The start of 2024 brings a new article on the XPO restoration. Whoop. Anyone on here still watching?
With the interior electrics repaired and reinstalled, I could finally move onto the interior installation. Well most of it.

Citroën BX – XPO – Electrics Pt2 – Eps35
Moving out of XPO's interior and starting to prepare the engine bay for the arrival of the engine, starting with the electrics. This article looks at the engine bay wiring, which is just as bad as the interior!

A brief bitsa article featuring bitsa hubs, brakes and bearings. All seamlessly stitched together to tell a tale of woe and foreboding.

Citroën BX – XPO – Engine Bay Preparation – Eps37a
It won't be long before the engine goes back in, so engine bay preparation of areas that won't soon be accessible seems sensible.

Citroën BX – XPO – Fuel Pipes – Eps37b
Before the engine went back in, this seemed like the right time to replace fuel pipes and recommission the fuel system.

While recent XPO progress has been slow, finishing the engine ready to go back into the engine bay has been a big emotional boost.
