How it looked when i got it

Edited 6 July, 201016 yr by vwjake31

that actually looks real sweet. Tbh, i'd probably leave it at that apart from some late spec clusters maybe.

yer just the rear lights,... has to be done

Hella clear front indicators for sure... Looks lovely!

yeah looks good dude,

i like the wheels, what are they? the kinda rh cup esque.

cheers for all the comments.

clear indies i think are a mus

i need to look into the rear clusters because i arnt sure of the differences yet

wheels look alot like rh cups but cant remember what they are, i need to find out of the bloke i bought it off, I'm de rusting all the drums capilers and suspension at some point over the weekend so i might find what they are if its printed on the back of them

lower

looks clean as mate love polo 3s

yeah needs a good deckin on 13s over winter me thinks

Smart car!

I love them wheels

clear lenses g40 rears and to the floor :)

I've done abit of tidying up in the bay for now, as i keep on finding with these cars, rust is an issue so I've got the trusty hammerite paint and wet cloth out for abit of a session.

after:

when i get round to upgrading pieces and making more space in there i will do i better job of tidying it up

i thought i would brighten up her smile with a new set of plates. standard ones for now but i will probably upgrade to some pressed ones at a later date

comments and ideas welcome

i havnt really been progressing with the motor until now but with it came a new set of problems

picked up some bits from the polo show

will get some pics of the outcome up tomorrow hopefully

lowerage, wheel change, exhaust and de stripeyed. let me know what you think

I'm well chuffed with the outcome aprt from the scubbing and scraping issues

very nice :)

very nice pal, very nice!!

will try n get sum better pics up soon, and a few of the new modifications

Another day off work spells bordom for me so i decided to strip out the rear and start thinking about ways to put a false floor in. turned out pretty well and didnt discover any rust spots.

I started sorting the few rust problems on the front end so i took lights and bumper off then began sanding until i got wankers cramp. i got my paint and shiz then did a write shoddy job of masking her up

primed it

and thats it for now. i put some pics up of when hopefully the paint is on and not flaked off

thoughts welcome cheers jake

took a photo today of the finished product and I've added some clear indies which i think makes the front end look loads better.

thoughts welcome

cheers jake

started another little job the other day

picked this up from the scrappy

and then after some serious cleaning and hours of dreaming of a machine polisher it turned out like this, not quite mirror poilished because i got demoralised by it

cheers jake

looks ser-weet! good job on the rocker cover!

finally got around to de polo-ing the car and then added some g40 rears aswell. i need to get those little holes filled and sprayed up though sometime

fixed my dodgey wonky bumper aswell but didnt take a pic. i quite like how it looks atm but i just need to find some new wheels as there is only so long i can look at gt steels for

cheers jake

Nice wagon.

Just one question what size are your borbets, mines running 6X14s and yours look a little wider?

yeah mine are 7x14 but they scubbed quite abit so I've sold them now. sexy wheels thow

jake could you post some pic of the rear with the 7 x 14's on so i can see what they look like as thinking of widening the rear on mine ... cheers
