Mk 1 Diesel Project

looks super!

[Jarred]

yes yes you should preeny.

actually maybe not. yours has more of a 'racing' feel & plastic bars, so it'd probably look better with them imo. if you had chrome, or early gti style bars, you could pull off arch-less probably.

but lets face it, that's the least of your problems atm! hurry up and finish the 16V, cause currently, my car is quicker than yours!

picked up an ebay bargain this afternoon.

not sure if I like it yet or not, needs a lick of paint though.

Just thought I'd bump this up so you'll know that the project isn't dead or complete! still plenty of things I can do.

I've already started a list, and it's got over 2 dozen things on it, a couple improvements, a couple repairs, and a couple of mods! Hopefully this summer will be rather productive.

watch this space.

Turbo and paint the engine bay!!!!

[Jarred]

hahaha. they're not actually only the list, and yet some how the list is still over 2 dozen things long!

[Jarred]

This thread isn't dead!

Slowly been putting things together, and gathering parts. The A**hole running into my car kinda bummed me a bit, but I've found a silver lining.

Here are some parts, that will hopefully go on next week, along with some upgraded & renewed brake components. Just making final modifications to a stop light switch & i'll be ready to go.

Pic, cause it'll happen.



And a pic of the damaged, for those who missed it:

Damn, that's a nasty hit
