What make is that trailer? I want to get one with my Golf 4 TDI Estate for towing new cars in.

After taking your trailer test, obviously.

It's a Fountain.

Good little trailer and light, too.

The white Golf isn't mine, it's one of the other guys in the barn.

It is a Syncro and a 90-spec one, too so extra super rare.  It's had a slight tap on the front, but there is naff all damage TBH and the shell is better than mine.
Just because you're offended doesn't make you right.

Is that the coach graveyard you pass on the A38 southbound? You can kinda see it in a dip on the side of the road?

No, it's Futbus's workshop, which is south of Newton Abbot.

Not 100% on the plans for it.

Mike, who owns it has already made a start on sorting out:



It was full of water, so everything inside needs to be stripped out!

Three cars won't really make much of a race series, will it?  :grin:

Especially as only one of them runs at the moment!

Indeed.  A strange outbreak of keen-ness rarely seen on the IOW  :shocked:

Well I finally decided on an engine for my syncro as thought I'd better do abit more with it than just abuse the 4x4 system!

Syncro all runs lovely now



Engine for transplant




Better start on wiring soon



Picked up some K-jet fuel supply to supply fuel to the AGU got to modify thr K jet lift pump for syncro tank tho



Other projects have mainly been on our SJ wich me and DH use for 4x4 club



External cage with some .:WR fabrication an DH welding skills!



Also another ABF vehicle has been added ready for the strip

And I'm on the look out for a mk2 rallye gearbox or g60 syncro gearbox if anyone knows of one?!


Cheers for looking!!
