heres my new coupe s :)

had it for a few weeks now but started doin work slowly. heres all the progress so far

the seats and interior were coverd in dog hair. I MEAN COVERED!!! so the interior had to come out

everything out :)

The black square patch is the clean bit, all the white stuff is dog hair :s

bought new timing belt and service parts. heres all the old crap

new belt

fitted

everything all cleaned up and back in :) had to jet wash all of it

For some reason the guy who i bought it off fiitted an electronic fuel pump and fitted a new mechanical one on but hadn't connected it up. there was a dodgy wire cuming out the fuse box, so it had no cover n look really untidy. so connected it all up n it worked

Nice rusty engine

Looked at the dirver door seal and it was nackerd

better fix for now

my new exhaust

The sill on my MK3 went there, just cut it out and welded it up, alot easier than faffing about trying to fit a new sill!

well what i was gona do was cut the end bit off the sill so it looks mint and use the other bit for doin the other side as iv just found abit more rust while sanding, but just needs patching

Loads done after tea

seems to be a lot of progress!!

iv booked a week off to try get it painted, and i got 4 of my mates helping after they finish work lol

yeah the drain holes have always been there. if i could get away with using no filler i would, but i have only used a medium pot to skim over the repairs, so not doin to bad lol
