well i havnt seen many 1.9TDI projects on here so i thought id start one :),
i previously had a 1.9D one that i swapped for this 1995 TDI and 300 of the queens English.
first plans are to replace the drive shaft and the gear linkage then all the rust :sick: and the dint in the front driver wing, then bring it back to color.
my pland are coilies, smoked rear lights, hellas for the front. remap :D and loads of other bits and bobs, give me some ideas :)
here are some pics of how it stands at the minute ( didnt have time to wash it am off to work till 3 in the morning :cry:

havnt updated in a while, i got the drive shaft changed, with some help from an angle grinder, cold chisel and a hammer :laugh:
now the starting motor has completely gone, so searching around for one, if any one has one give me a shout, finally fitted all my radio and sub and everything in properly. then changed the pipe from the radiator,( the metal one) and sprayed it with blue hammerite. went to a scrappy and picked up this k&n air filter and a few other bits and bobs for a 10na :)
gunna do some more on the rust tommorow and hopefully get it all sorted by sunday.
here are some pics :nerd:
