The cab has now officially retired for the year. I have just cleaned and waxed it, put it in the garage, removed the battery, claimed the Tax back, and tucked her up with some blankets! I feel quite sad really :'( not going to have her out for at least another 7 months!!!
-
Bring her down South, its still sunny here! 8)
Hope it enjoys its rest, dont worry spring will be here in no time!
-
Always good to do if you want to keep it in A1 condition....! Specially with the color of your car - it may turn orange....!!!! :D I know it's RED....
Mine's in the garage too for winter now - but taking apart for restore work...
What car are you driving around in Adam for Winter?
-

I heard he's getting a pink Escort cab. You know, a proper hairdressers car :P
:D

Did you say Goodnight to it and read it a night time story? ;)

its about that time of year again.? :'(
Im wondering if ill get to have the roof down once more before the tax runs out at the end of the month.? ?mine does leak a bit so its best to put it away before the wet gets a chance to ruin the interior.? ::)
must admit though, im looking forward to it going into the garage.? then i can start stripping it for the makeover. bring on next summer? 8)
will there be any cabs at newark :-\
-
blimey, i hope that im not saying the mk1 cab roofs are better than they acually are!!! lol,, oh well would be nice if at least one cb or 2 showed there face at newark, i know my mate snowballs bringing his mk4 cab, so i hope all the other mk's follow!!!

Don't say that vix, now I feel under pressure to clean and polish the old girl? :D
-
The only reason I am putting her to bed, is because I pick up my new toy in the morning, and there is no need to drive it whilst the weather wont make up its mind. It's not a prctical daily driver any more, either, with it being so low. You'll all get to see the new "Beast " at Newark. - and it is a "Beast"!!
-
Beast.....????!!!!! Is it a VW I hope so...... Give us some idea... a little... go on go on Adam... Who can figure out what Adam new toy is.....????
If it's a VW I think it's a VR6 Carroda if it's not a VW it's a Porsche GT3..... (I can wish away)

There are a few poeple who know what it is, but I'll keep the rest of you guessing till Newark. I have just collected it, and my heart is still racing from the drive home! It is quick - very quick!
-
You have just become used to the cab scraping on everything so you can only do 10mph :P
-
My cab is away for winter now too :'(
Some big mods planned this winter:-
Fit the stainless fuel filler neck
Fit rear discs
Replace the 4 into 1 manifold and downpipe with the 4 into 2 manifold and downpipe and then it'll be off to Powerflow for a new system
Replace the inlet manifold with one that has already been machined for the larger throttle body and obviously change the throttle body
...........that should keep me busy :)
