Right then, where can i start, i bought this VR6 last winter, with the best intentions of tidying it up and selling it on, i owned a tidy 8v Mk3 at the time, and was fairly happy with it, then when i picked up the VR, for a reasonable £1700, i realised that it was everything that the 8v shud've been, so that was it...bye bye 8v.
the car was in a bit of a tangle when i got it, although only 1 service stamp missing from fsh, the last owner mis-treated her.
covered in white overspray from painting a house with it on the drive, and a nice scuff on the rear wheel arch, i got up on a freezing Jan mornin, n tidy'd the rear quater up a bit, but due to losing three fingers from frostbite, i just wafted over in paint, not really caring what it looked like, n apart from the wheels n headlights, thats how she's stayed.....UNTILL NOW
now that winters here,(i love the cold) i can start the bodywork again, so i'll be...
smoothing all bumpers, bonnet washers, side repeaters, tailgate badges,wiper,spoiler,also going are the factory sideskirts, i may get some aftermarket, but probably not(can't decide yet), i've just bought some de-locked Mk4 polo handles, and managed to get a mental deal of swapping my cloth seats for black leather....
so for paint, it's going in the original dragon green, with a holographic boston green metal flake fleck, so shud shine a bit in the sun, then if i can get a decent price for the missus and kids, i'm gonna bolt a supercharger onto her, ( but don't tell em that
), so there you go, i'll post pics as and when i can, but it maybee a slow n painfull project, but it will be done for nxt years show season, so see you all there........HARDCOR3
