What's wrong with the A8 that you wanna put its heart into a sad mk4 shell?  :whistle:

A8 looks a bit tired! And I like setting myself a challenge 😜

Freshen up the A8... lots of understatement, especially if you're in the rear view mirror cos everyone's gonna think it's an A3 ;)

The stripping has started



And I've bought a gearbox that I think might work 2.8v6 Passat 4 motion

Decided on this as my project car! Think it will be better suited with a V8

There's a front engined V10 mk4 golf floating about on faceache. Anything is possible with enough effort and $$$$$s ! ;)

On a back burner now! Sold the Audi as to good to strip just for engine! Got a bora that I'm going to turn into a pick up. whilst I'm doing that I'll be looking for an s6 v8 manual then transplant all of it into the pick up  :grin:
