Thanks dude and haha no way! Small world, should get the picture posted up

Was looking a state with standard wheels on the back and haven't washed it in forever! Was grabbing some parts for my friends quattro wish i did grab a spare drive shaft now, probably wouldn't be a bus wayne kerr

Thanks man, i'm hoping this to be back up and running in the next few weeks shame my insurance runs out on 25th so need to find some more £!

Are you gonna paint up the engine bay whilst your there Dan? It would be a shame not too 

[Bellend]

Blimey, what are you doing to those subframes?

Can't you get someone to weld some skid plates on the new one?

[dom]

Loving it! Can't wait to see this progress further

[Seanl]

Love how this is gonna sit on your road like that for a couple of weeks!

Don't think so dude can't be bothered, the car is getting a full respray in summer any way so i will just wait until then

Yeah man, the new subframe is getting welded up once it's off the car

Loving it! Can't wait to see this progress further

Thanks dude

Haha, picking the donor up a week on Saturday so it will be getting swapped over then

[DanChave]

Fair play dude! Woulda thought It would have made more sense to paint the 'bay while the engine is out the way but then again you don't seem adverse to ripping your cars apart at any give time lol!

Have you decided on a colour for the respray yet?
