What you going to do with the engine? 

Why, are you thinking of upgrading to a 1.8 8v? 

Ideally, I want a ABF on bike carbs

My buddy had a 9A on bike carbs in his rocco, went well and sounded pretty cool.

Yes, you'll have to give me dates when you know and I'll put together a meet down here

[DanChave]

Sounds like a plan! I have contemplated fitting bike carbs to mine but I don't know how much of a mission it would be lol

[DanChave]

All confirmed! I'll be swapping front ends on Wednesday next week and I'll be in the garage the next morning, welding up the washer jet holes in the bonnet, getting some paint on the mother trucker, and getting the grills painted!
Expect new pics on Wednesday, Thursday and friday

In other news, I have just been offered a MK1 golf 5 Door with an ABF lump on ZR1 Bike Carbs!! I may have to sell up quick sharpish!

I would love to! The thing is a beast, It pulls in every gear but looks like a standard gx on P-Slots!
Once my car is finished and MOT'd in January it will be going up for sale if its still available. The guy is in no hurry to sell so I might get lucky yet!

On the other hand, I have never finished a project so I kinda owe it to myself to see this one through

Picked up my leather interior today Sooo happy with it! It also came with all the window switches, door speakers and chrome door pulls! Plus it turns out it has heated front seats! Bonus!
Removing the seat heater loom wasn't much fun though, I had to take most of the dash apart and it took me nearly TWO HOURS!!! It'll be worth it in the long run though

It's too dark now, I'll get some pics up tomorrow!

VR6 Leather seats fitted

Front



And back



As you can see, the door cards haven't been fitted yet, they will be stashed away until I have sourced an early loom for the electric window motors. I will fit the heater loom for the front seats at the same time
