Alright guys/gals

thought it about time i started a thread on the cabby,

so basically bought the car off a guy called Lee from hull, who did most of the work.
couple pics of how lee had it last year and when the engine conversion was first done,









and with carbs fitted




Lee then fitted chrome side stripes handles and filler cap and BBS RSs





and full retrim including porsche tombstone seats,



and that is how i bought the car minus the RSs,

Went to show in stanstead in it and had a great day, untill on the trip home, it over heated in cambridge and blew a hose rather spectacularly.





had major problems as a result of this, but a m8 of mine johnny haycock sorted it out for and its running better than it ever has.

then 1 weekend round sparrows thought would try his wheels on to see wot i could get away with on it,





so after that the hunt was on for some tasty rimmage for her, and after hunting high and low for couple of months these came up on ebay and i just had to have them.



after a 6 hour round trip to near wolverhampton they were mine and i jus had time to get them on for the monthly cambs meet



So thats as she stands now. its been a turbulant few months but when shes on song and the weathers good it all seems worth it and puts the biggest smile on my face


P.S.
sorry for the monsta post, lol

looks phat with the new rimmage, could'nt stop looking at its new stance when we was in convoy.

awesome

great wheels, great engine, great interior, great car! one of fendubbers finest

Cheers Ed, lovin you new jetta too.

those wheels have made it look so phat! good choice!

Cheers steph, im proper chuffed with them, pissed off i lost a centre cap though

Need to get your new centre caps ASAP then dude! you better get hunting!!

wona swap ur wheels for my g60's matty, u can even have my off road front tyres i no you love!

yeah joe, and money ur way sounds good, jus cuz i love them so much

Looks so sweet in the flesh. As Ed said this is probably one of the nicest cars on here. Any plans for the future or are you happy with it now?

plans at the mo are to get everything working to try and get it through the MOT

other than that, id like a brown carpet and brown mohair roof, but theyll depend on if i get rid of it after summer.

ye the bonus is that i have a full set of 4 centre caps haha

any way on a serious note you no u dont want to sell her dude! just do a "quick" engine swap with the tin top!

Well in all honesty thats all i brought this for was to have abit of summer fun then have the engine out of it for the tintop but i dunno we'll see wot happens

ye i memba u saying bud, you'll probs end up having the interior out for you tin top aswel lol wont be much left of the cabby then tho

Na m8, ill be sold as it is, just with standard gti lump and different wheels.

And the tintop will be having some super light buckets.
