Title: Timberland Mexico mk3 VR6
Post by: Timberland on 10 October 2011, 12:39: Hello,

I'm from Holland so my Englisch is not very good, especially writing.
So it can be difficult to read, i'm sorry about that.

I have a big project of saving a Mexican vr6...

(http://i6.photobucket.com/albums/y229/puntoracing/vr/DSC_0003.jpg)
here it was in a very poor state.
I have let it repainted and cleaned some parts.

i mounted a rebuild 2,9 vr6 in the car.
With black Samco coolant hoses.
