Beinn's English Green B4 Wagon project

Featured Replies

Hi so bought this back in Feb as a side project.

e973b9ed054d03a7ac9acb9f10727c57_zpsbc48

Not much has changed, just been buying things for it now and then.

Replaced all the lights on it, badged grill and painted a new front panel for it:

All red rears:

Picked up some air ride struts last Tuesday:

Wheel adapters should be coming from the states next week! style_emoticons/#EMO_DIR#/smile.gif

Will respray it once I'm happy with every thing else.

Will be a slow thread because I'm doing it as and when.

Adapters in the uk, so should arrive soon! Hopefully.

Bags all cleaned and re-polished the cups. Struts ready for paint (body colour).

Front D: haha! Need some 2" dishes.

If any one knows of any 2j 15" compomotive 20 hole dishes, then please drop me a pm. Really in need of some as you an see!!!!

Could swap for my 4j 15" compomotive 20 hole dishes.

Finished doing all the notching and inner arch work to the other B4, so me and Jack should blast threw mine now.

Got an 8.5 gallon airlift tank for this, it's bloody huge! :D

Got black carpet, door cards and some more trims.

Going to black the door cards as they've got blue dots.

Also got another set of wheels, because you can't have enough wheels! ;)

Going to colour code them, should look cool. Just till I build my graku splits up.

these run a mk3 front chassis, so you can run mk2 golf track to narrow it 25mm, then those splits will fit without different dishes.

Yeah found a thread on vw vortex about that! Yeah I like the staggered look and tuck so there staying. :)
