Aye, Jo keeps changing his mind. I talked to him at GTI festival and he does some work on it but then decides he can do it better so does it again. :grin:

Looks fantastic, i think its fair to say were lucky to have such a project under our club.. and maybe the car on our club stand in the summer! :smiley:
Still not sure about the wheels :huh:
-
Suggested to Steve @ Golf+ mag that Jo's TVR/Golf may make an interesting addition to their stand at Inters..... he totally agreed.
Just got off the phone to Jo and the monster is being painted tonight. Still work to be done but pay attention at Inters.... this should attract some attention :cool:

Spoke to Joe and the guy who is helping him build it for a while just after you keft JV and he says that its sooo near to completetion but didn't want to 1/4 mile i becuase they haven't set everything up yet, but he said it should be at Santa Pod soon :grin:....and the bonnet was still on because he took it off for less then five minutes and people just swarmed...... :grin: :grin:
Was good to meet the madman behing this creation
-
That car looks the business - can't wait to see it in the flesh... Nice work man. :smiley:
-
Trust, the pics don't do it justice....its is soooooo wiiiidddeee and low :cool:
-
This was unbelievable, the inside is just awesome and jo did let gti89 and myself have a look inside it :grin: I daren't ask to look at the engine for the very reasons mix stated earlier. He also started it for us and it sounds just like a tvr (hmmm, I guess it would really ! :laugh: :laugh:) He has every intention of taking this down the strip at GTI festival and if it's there it will be on the golfgti.co.uk stand. Bring it on ! :grin: :grin:

I went over to speak to joe yesterday and he fired it up for me,and within 5 secs there must have been at least 50 people crowded round,it sounded amazing!!
-

-
Hi All,
I'll introduce myself in the top thread but got drawn to this one.
This is one crazy ass car and absolute full respect to Joe for putting this together.
It's gonna be one mean kick ass machine. Anyway the guys were kind enough to let me film it, once I have vwvids put back together again it will be on my specials page but for those that cannot wait, heres an 11meg video clip from Inters

Thanks again guys for letting me shoot this :cool:
-
nice vid matey :)

nice vid matey :)
Hey thats probably the biggest thing I regreted about not going to Inters this year, seeing Joe's TVR/Golf and how it has progressed. Now I feel like I was there :smiley:
Great video........thanks :smiley:
-
sweet :cool:
-
thanks to all who have supported me through the site max power got hold of me on sunday a asked me if i wanted a feture and the reaply thay got wasnt to there taste of course i said no but any way any sergestions on wot colour
-
two-tone cream / burgandy if you want retro ... but being a mk1 you cant go far wrong with lhasa green either :cool: .. i reckon porsche pepperminit blue would suit it well too. Infact you'd have to try bloody hard to make it look bad :laugh:
-
maybe audi rs blue? but i like the lhasa green idea too. you seen that porsche hybrid in pvw?
-
think you should go old skool conventional, 2 tone is cool. NO AIRBRUSHING tho. make it look subtle cos then it will be a contradiction which will be cool........i reckon anyway!
-
Primer Grey looks :cool:
Either that or Lhasa Green sounds good to me :smiley:
-
yeah, go for a standard colour! lhasa greens nice. :smiley:
-
I'm liking the cream and burgundy idea that topher said. :grin:
-
Nah, leave it with the unfinished look :huh: so that you surprise people more when you zoooooom down the track in uber short time :grin:
More sensibly now, lhasa green or black.....or that orangey colour that is occuring more now
-
i cant see the vid :sad: :sad:
-
i can't see it either?
-
he has some competition, theres on in the new pvw i think that has a porche lump in it, and its as wide :shocked:
-
duh did i not mention that!!!!! should be a funny quarter mile if we could get them together!!!
-
You did
:embarassed: :embarassed: :embarassed: :embarassed: :embarassed: :embarassed:

The battle of the super1's
-
i think black with cl crome trim and bits with the wheels youve got and your alluminium interior....... well it would do for me.....
:cool:
-
Oak green or shiny black with a hint of chrome does it for me :cool:
-
primer looked cool to me give it the rat look :wink:
-
i cant see the vid either :sad:
i will have to see this car in the flesh at one of the shows
-

Haven't seen the latest PVW yet but are you referring to one that was built back in I think the 80s early 90s with 928 running gear etc
( I had a book on GOLFs mild and wild , can't seem to find it at the mo ) ÂÂÂ
I was wondering where he got the front screen made up on the TVR / GOLF as the bloke with the 928 monster apparently had great difficulty getting one made back then .
P.S. I'd imagine the TVR beast would be the quicker of the two but it would be good find out up at the POD!  :cool: :shocked:
-
I reckon it will be better leaving the car in the "rat" look, suprise the hell out of people better then :grin:

Yeah, thats the one, black with a few chrome trimming etc!! He made the front and rear windows out of plexi glass by the looks of it. all of them where in fact. Nice and light!!!
-
rat look would be cool but a 10foot wide mk1 isnt exaclty subtle so i would go with a theme for the paint etc
-
whats he goin to do about the grill because it will be shorter
-
i'm sure if he can make a whole car wider, a bit of plastic work will be a piece of piss!!!
-
yeah, he sadi he was gonna break out the plastic welder and mock one up.....and maybe put the lights behind the grill like on the didge charger :grin:

^^ you really need to slow down on the typing nick..........
