In The Beginning.....
« on: 12 June 2005, 15:41 »
Hi all
  Ryan here and since i have introduced myself(hi from wendover) i thought i would show you my car.
i will give you some info on it below, here goes:-

1985 c reg 1.8 8v k-jet mk2 3door
214000 miles (and the head has never been off, uses no oil or water at all and still pulls like it is brand new)

Mods done:
single badge grill
black badges
lowered 55mm all round
full scorpion s/s exhaust system
drilled airbox with K&N filter
lay flat rear wiper
tow bar (well cool and will become fashion eventually (maybe) )
big bumpers
uprated headlight loom

Mods coming:
2l 16v engine (2l bottom end 16v head)
then that is getting a turbo fitted when i get all the parts together
widetrack conversion (all parts there just getting the time to fit them)
smoked crosshair front headlights
smoked front indicators
smoked rear lights
three point harnesses
german plates
22mm master cylinder
big brake conversion

I think that is all i will do the now. i am trying to keep it looking on the outside as original as possible bar a few subtle mods. so there you go that is my car and hopefully it will have most of it done for santa pod on the 10th july bar the turbocharger fitted. Please keep the slating as nice as possible because i cry all to easily :grin: :grin: here are the pics

cheers ryan
