As ye no the car crapped itself a couple of months ago and I was toying wit the idea of getting rid altogether. I have decided to keep it now and get her going again.
Plans are as follows:
Get the engine rebuilt with a new turbo fitted
Changing front end to a B7 front priced parts new from traynors in the north for 640 new.. That's bonnet wings front panel lights grills front bumper and reinforcement bar..
Next thing after that then is the mechanical side of it
New bushings all round standard suspension with lowering springs
New wheels and tires
Full respray again and it won't be pink this time..
It's going to take a while to do but I'll keep the thread updated as progress is made..
Hoping to start it in the next week or 2
Car as it stands now
