This is the most recent one of mine dude :)

NEEEDS MORE LOW!

Yeah definitely, should be getting some springs and shocks next month!

Cant decide whether to go 40 or 60 on the front though!!

the front on mine ideally would go down another 20mm, which would be an 80-60 drop, but 2 things stopping me, everything hangs low on it, and already cant get it in my garage without bashing everything

Yeah i think i will go with 40 on the front for now, and see what it looks like, as i do have plastic arches on the front aswell.

Will update when i get some lowering springs, hopefully be start of next month!

good man! low is the best

Mines 60 on the front, but i am running 14 inch wheels, and no plastic arches!

get rid of those wheals fit some 14in onto it with loprofile tyres

and lower it

also get rid of the silly stickers

Nah I like the 13" bbs mahle!

And the stickers went ages ago, should be pics on here?!

Small update, bought some clear indicators and side repeaters and fitted these, think it just makes it look a bit cleaner.

While i'm here thought i would post the first pics of the engine bay, even gave it a clean.

Look what the postman brought!

Not sure when they will be fitted though, as have not passed my test yet so hard to get it to a mate to fit!

Hopefully wont be too long!

So its been a long time since i updated this thread!

I will apologize now for the picture heavy post!

So anyway, from where this thread ended i passed my test and the bready got lowered and on the road!

However this was short lived as when it was on the road it had lots of fuelling issues then he alternator went and many more underlying problems.

So in May 3 months after she came on the road i got myself a new car, picked it up cheap and it quite took my fancy.

Ignore the mark in this picture it is my rubbish phone not on the car!

But of course i couldnt just sell the mk2, so i garaged it for a month or so then decided what i wanted to do with it.

Il be going down the AFH conversion route on bike carbs, and have the majority of parts to do this.

Also the bodywork and interior will be getting some attention to, from here onwards il let the pictures do the talking.

So i started stripping it down and getting rid of all the nasty plastic, bump strips, plastic arches etc

started to prime some bits..

Took the arches off to find this nasty stuff, Nightmare to get off!

Getting there...

Bought myself an engine, with gearbox and other goodies!

Arches finished!!

More primer

Stripped the inside down

Got myself a nice false floor, also got the matching doorcards!

Trial fit...

Primed the inside!

Odd bits the final colour

Then the car

Newspaper off the windows, didnt come out too bad for a £80 spray job!

Bits going back on

And the false floor and doorcards fitted properly, also got a set of porsche tombstones trimmed in the same cream and brown check, get pics of them up soon!

sorry for the blurrines phone cameras suck!

Door speakers in the front door cards aswell!

Everything on!

Future Plans!

Engine in

Spray Engine Bay

Make the engine look nice

Get the bbs done with cream centres and a polished lip

Go lower

Better brakes

i have probably missed loads!

Any input welcome!

Lovely colour mate, and looks like an ok job

not digging the rear door cards, rest is cool though!

Cheers!

So on Saturday managed to get the engine out finally so just need to clean up the bay and get it painted!

Here's a couple more pictures!

And also got the engine painted aswell!

Brilliant effort there! :)
Love the colour!

So just a couple of small updates...

Enjoy....

Thought I'd finally give you a pic of the seats!

Also got most of the engine bay done a couple weeks ago as the picture shows but got it finished the weekend just gone but forgot to take pictures

Also had a problem that my sunroof was red and with a blue car that wouldn't look good so got a big sticker made think it looks alrightt! The vw logos look more blue in person

Also a couple more pictures of the interior....

This think is funking cool! Rad combo with the chequered trim and baby blue!

Post a photo with the seats in if you get a chance?

Here you go, they are not great pictures but only ones i have at the moment.

Will try get some more when i'm next at the garage.

Great work seats are cool.

Love the colour and pattern combo with this! Thought I recognised the pattern before I saw the seats Slightly in love with this, great combinations!

Only thing I will say is that rear door cards don't look quite right though...

This looks so awesome man :) i love the seats. Infact i love pretty much all of it. Great work
