      little misshap threw a spanner in the works....


      so bought an A4 avant 1.8 20v nonT for work dutis with the insurance payout


      purely for transport duties....never going to touch it.....

        then my friend put his A8 4.2q up for sale that id done a set of srt wheels for and I had to pick it up




        only thing ive physically done to it so far is oem+ tail pipes on a straight through rear box


        but just got these for it...8 pot phaeton/bentley/lambo calipers


        which I still need to get discs for and theyll sit behind the mulliners Ive hopefully picked up for the A8 and the srt's will go on the A6 estate I bought when I broke the A4 whilst working away

          and on the mk1 front.........

          decided to go for it and the only proper way to go really full on was 20vT.....so the old engine from the red A4 that was dying from a cyl.head gasket got rescued. Decided to try a port on the aeb inlet


          welded up where id went through and was going to buff it down but going to go with an integrated engineering inlet now anyway so moved on...

          arches to hold some proper rubber


          ARB's


          polycarb windows,one piece fronts with sliders


          picked up a really cheap set of RS001s in 8x15 and redone the centres and barrels with just a blast and powdercoat laquer after giving them a brushed finish


          got some new lips which are actually old narrow image barrels


          they now measure in at 9.5 and 10.5


          dug the car out from my sisters drive....been three years since I last started it


          it got a wash


          then it got cut up

            trialled on with the turbines.........lmao


            pulled the car out and a rough dry run with the new lips




            bought some new fuel stuff,foam filled fia tank


            swirl pot turned up(same as pics)with the wrong fuel connections so its getting changed


            and got a new berg kit as I wanted to run fibreglass wings as well and it didnt make sense pot rivetting fibreglass to fibreglass especially when the guy I bought the og kit from started doing a combined wing and arch. Ordered it in a british racing green gel coat to avoid white stone chip speckles and also got the front dam although still unsure whether to run with it or a more aerodynamic front

                out...


                and stripping






                finished it off with a wire wheel on the grinder


                and finally got my new top mounts to go in. Going to wait to stick these and the konigsports on until ive got the rear beam triangulated and poly'd


                pretty much up to date but im working away from home 3 weeks out of 4 so progress is slow so far

                          Managed to pick up another couple sets of wheels and parts but progress is a bit slow just now. Hoping my next leave cycle will be a bit more productive. Had to take a couple weeks off there work to let some personal stuff play its course and the motivation took a major hit but. Next trip home im going to try and get some of the new bits on
