Wait... what might that be in my driveway?? - Project Time

Ah it all makes sense Polished P Slots are sexy

I am very jealous of the colour of your car. If I hadn't found the GTI last year, I was looking pretty hard for a GLS in your colour (Florida Blue is it?)!

any reason why a GLS in that colour is special?

Hurry up Matt I want a update and it better look something like this

[Mischa]

yeah hurry up and grow some titties

Good things come to those who wait

Polishing wheels is a slow slow process

Will be taking it down to a local guy to have the rust work all professionally done, feel it will be a much better job than my own work and i hate rust and want it gone. Other than that I have done a bit of prep work on panels and have started stripping the 16v down.

no pics just yet though, my hair is much longer than hers, not sure I can deliver on the bust though but the car will hopefully look as good as that one, will haev the same style going for it.

except your wheels will actually fit properly!

I guess will just have to insert her in your photos of your car then lol.

Was bound to happen sooner or later, burred the heads of some bolts /facepalm

The allenkey bolt on the water outlet on the head was already burred out had a quick go at it but wasn't going to happen. Then I burred out the head on the top bolt on the oilfilter outlet.

guessing I will need to drill them out and get on of those special tools?

You can usually get them to start turning with a cold chisel.

Vice grips if you can get 'em in there work too.

Another way is to go the next size up imperial hex and smack it into the head of the bolt. Spline and torx bits can work too, but I wouldn't do it with my own tools.

She looks very familiar, I'm not bragging but I think I might have dated her a long time ago! Anyone know how old this picture is or if that car is from Belgium?
