Plans so far weld in inner rear quarter on Sunday next week as it is fecked will get some pics when done




























































































































































































Get the pepper Potts on. ( I have a set banging about )




























































































































































































Bosch pump set up for wvo and svo




























































































































































































Front mount




























































































































































































Lowerd




























































































































































































Meridian seats




























































































































































































205 steering wheel (again banging about)




























































































































































































New rad and gauges already bought.




























































































































































































Some other little tweaks might make a straight through exhaust as well as I've got some kit at work

The project started off as project cooking oil baby transportation but got shortened to cook. Like cook from skins.
The troll face you require is here [attachment=14231]

No mods as of yet though the pepperpotts are at work ATM having tyres put on the rest of the mods will come as and when moneys free.

Also just got gauges through so they will be weird in soon as well. Welding comes first though.

*Wired* not weird stupid auto correct

Woah, that really is bad. O.o

Good deal at the scrapyard there, the big one near me puts it's prices up by the week at the moment - had to pay £12 plus vat for a single boost pipe a couple of weeks back. Angry

Moving pretty quick with this, got any more plans for her yet?

Yeah was really bad considering the rest of the car is spotless! Ive got to put the new rad in ive got my eye on a gti6 axle to lower her and convert rear to discs. Im trying to get as much done as possible as my first kid is due in 2 weeks and things will come to a stand still.
£12 for one boost pipe what a rip off! Lucky my ones a local scrappy in the middle of nowhere just go with my tools strip what i want and then talk money.

Right new rad in today phase 1 instead of 2 due to space saving. Had to be changed anyway. Also found out why my air filter kept getting water in the bottom. Had a crack in the side. So have removed it all. Got a sock over it atm. Green stripy one FTW!! [Image: 2y5eha5u.jpg][Image: a3e9yvyq.jpg]
Sorry about poor quality pics phone is caped in crap atm.

Found a new axle form the beast so I can rebuild and put on. Hopefully get it this weekend. Baby dependent (we are due next Tuesday) also need some lowering stings 30\40 mm not a lot. I also want to maintain a little comfort as well

Finally pulled the axle to bits. Has taken me a while as we now have the little one here. Smile just got a question for the axle gurus. One side is serviceable the other is buggered. Got some pictures. [attachment=15177] the bearings in this side are free moving no wear to see. So I'm going to put this side back together as ia. [attachment=15178] this side the bearings are gone but thankfully the cross tube is fine I need a new trailing arm shaft and bearings for this side. Any good sources?
The fi ak question is could I bolt my drums to these hubs or am I going to have to source callipers as these done look so good..[attachment=15179] h/b levers are ceased solid. Sad cables are ok though.
Thoughts people?

Could rebuild the calipers yourself, if you can do a beam you can certainly manage them. Bigg red do seal kits for about £30 the pair iirc, can get new sliders from them too.

Making good progress with this, fair play!

Never thought of rebuilding them to be fair shouldn't be to bad. I'll take a look into getting the seal kit. Going to press the bad trailing arm shaft off today. Should be interesting. Going to have to lower my other beam on the car instead whike.im waiting for parts.

The result of 2 days buggering about and a set of speedlines which one is bent so can't stay on. Hope to get a new one though. Think it looks good. [attachment=15646]

The beam on the car (which is being replaced) had to be notch lowerd and one of the torsion bar washers bust so instead of buying a new one I welded the bugger in. Just because I'm not buying new stuff when I'm putting another axle on in a few weeks.
