Engine swap info

[benvictors]

Ye I'll still have it, thinkin of slingin it through its test now so gonna give it a lil' tart up first, the bodywork and interior needs a good clean and its missin so get that sorted, get my black wheels on it and see what it looks like.
Although by tomorrow I may have changed my mind again 

[kells]

got any pics of it?

[benvictors]

Just this one, after a quick soapy lather -


Needs a proper good clean still tho, its been stood for the best part of 6 months, was full of mould, leaves an dirt when I picked it up. think the paintwork will come up nice tho

Early spec, even has the early spec rims, same year as mine but mine had late spec rims

i like it mate, the early ones are the best and strongest

its got a non gti grill (as its black)

where u find it?

With some better rims etc that would be ok.

Ye dont see many of them alloys about, think I'll re-furb an sell em, might struggle to get the centres for em tho, nearside front and back are missing.
Even with the miss-fire its quicker than my Flash red un, the more I think about it the more I think the engine swap may be a silly idea.

I've decided, Gonna get it all cleaned up this week, get my Graphite Grey Alloys an wheel spacers on it and possibly some lowering springs I've got knocking about and take it from there.
The problem I then have is what do I do with my Flash red one, its only got 2 months T & T on it, 192,000 miles on the clock and a twitted gearbox............
Hhhmmmmmm, more fecking decisions!!!

As above break it maybe.

Ye apart from a couple of little rust spots its pretty damn good, might throw 200 notes at it for a new box and a years test then flog it, what do you reckon I'd get for it all nicely runnin £600 - £700 maybe?
