the nextr step is the wheels some of the body work needs attention :( but we had to get it done quicky ... as she is going in the garage on thursday for brakes and cambelt and a 50 point check !! ahhh not looking forward to the result lol oh well.. next thing on the list though is wheels it looks horrible on steels it make me wanna puke people laugh at me lol :(

So it kinda goes like this ...

* black roof - end of month
* wheels - end of the month.
* body work - probs next month
* interior - Maybe end of the month
* exhaust - dunno when that will happen
* Coilovers- when funds allow
* Sort out the ice - Slowly getting there
* Service
* May be Spray some bits black to brake it up
* track down a vr6 lump or g60 :D
* spray engine bay Baby Blue

And thats all i can think of as of now no doubt i will think of more :D

What do you guys think? i need ideas on things that will really make it stand out and be different :D

Changing the engine is not really a good idea as so much needs to be changed with starting with a smaller engined base car.

It is as so much is different, much better to start with at least a GTI.

Looms gotta be changed with each engine.

You dont need to change the rear axle but widetrack and easy disc brakes.

Not a lot in it going from an 8v to a VR instead of a 1.4. Only rear pita is the pedal box.

All IMO, these cars are a piece of cake to work on
