My 1.6cl Polo Project

Featured Replies

As i said to craig on the phone i would put some money a side this month to get the cam belt changed and water pump. As you don't want them going on you. Cam belt going will most likely leave the engine for the bin and water pump leave your car on the side of the road nice and hot.

Look forward to seeing some updates

Thank you Craig :p Off to get some engine bits now haha! Hope you like!! xxx

very nice, and a man that nows what he is doing never grumbels... so guessing by the lack of winging on here hes doen it right i think if the steels were furbed i think they could look pimp

Looks like a lot of fun! I'd be proud to be the owner of that beast! ha ha

cars comin on well! I like that colour, my bro used to have a GLX in that colour on schmidt modern lines. It looks real good on the 16v wheels!

craig your car looks awesome. I love it!

Great progress in a short space of time. Nice work :-)
