cheers mate. keeping my mind busy is this.. the car will be coming to you once finished


Just waiting on the owner giving me the funds to purchase more parts, cam belt etc is been bought tomo so we should have that fitted on the weekend along with the rear hubs off the MK3 and some wiring

also aim to re paint the engine bay on the weekend.

So far iv degreased it and got it back to the paint, this took some doing and 6 cans of gunk

it was like this



now its like this



and here is the MK3 subframe thats been cleaned up



You can see on here the part of the bulkhead that needs welding

Picked up a K03/s Turbo set up for it



and iv got the Gearbox all ready

the car is nowhere near as good state as mine so its a real labour of love but we are treating it like it is our own (as we would anyones car)

owner wants it to look like mine does under the hood (OEM style)  I have bought all new plastics for the trim bits that bolt to the engine.. nothing will be left. should be good one done

We would have had this finished by now but having to wait for funds off the owner who is trying to hide the costs from the wife, as he also has another project on the go (air-cooled beetle)  not cheap projects  :grin:
