project sweet f**k all - some new pictures 10/02

Heres a few pictures of my vws, the black ones a 1.8 driver (for sale) the middle is my new 16v (hhm lost interest in cleaning it you can see where i stopped!), and then theres my dads v5 passat it looks so high! Opinions?

cool them sam

valver is a nice colour, i'd put the crosshairs in that one

im with kev same get the crosses on the v
saw you today well the v parked at boothferry road
would be a cool place to hold a meet good sized car park

Yeah a lot of people have said that, i just got that grill and lights for the driver and now im selling it, would make sense to swap them.

if it makes sence to you then do it not like swapping them is going to knock ant value of the driver

Boothferry car park would be a good place. ill swap the lights and the grill while im at it. Theres a sticker in the back of the v "old vws dont die they just get lower" i was gunna take it out do you all agree? seen as it isnt reallllly low and its a bit silly!

Less is more dude. Sticker gotta go! (unless it's a VUU CULT one!)

Liking both the Mk2's though.

how much you selling the driver for, have you posted it up in vag rides for sale

Id like 450 for the driver, j reg, 135k ish miles, lowerd 60mm on gas shocks, vw electric windows, weber carb, gti cam shaft, all new tires, mot til november, loads of service history, new exhaust,
i recently replaced the gasket between the carb and the in let manifold and if messed up the fueling cos the old one had a massive hole in it, so it dosent run that well.

It'll just need the fueling on the carb messing around with... a bit of trial and error will see it running fine again. I did a similar thing on my old 1.3 Ryder when I replaced my head gasket... I thought "Ooh, I'll change all the other gaskets while I'm at it." - Big mistake... I hadn't a clue what I'd done, but a bit of time fiddling with mixture screws, etc, saw it running right again.

Looks like a nice Driver too. If I had sold my BMW on Ebay last night, that could have been a good run-around while I get my GTi running.

I dont fancy just messing with the fuelling with npo c02 metres and stuff, my dads goin nuts cos its on the drive though every time i touch it hes like your not bloody keeping it! 2 cars and a bike isnt enough.

Jolf anyone? cars dirty in the pic and its a crap pic, but you get the idea!

Im sure ill get mixed opinions on this...

like it sam the head lights could do with smoking

Cheers jez.

Thats a job for this weekend, should i spray parts of the reflectors or remove the glass and tint the inside of it, and what effect will it have on the power of the lights? i was thinking xenon lamps and and uprated headlamp loom to counter act it? need advice.

I love cheap mods, cant afford masses of body work!

i'll take you through it at the next meet thats easiest sam

think its best to up grade your bulbs that will do it as you only paint the really nonessential bits

Sam... you just wanna be like me.

You lurrrrrve me, you wanna beeeee me...

Looking cool fella.

Jez... I got a spare set of lights, but looking at them, there's no 'spare stuff' to spray black other than the reflectors... it takes up the whole bowl.

Was thinking of making some homemade cross-hairs to go in... trick, huh?

Your lights look way darker then mine gee.

And i dont wanna be you! was my idea first!

We should have a practice run on your spare set gee, or seend me pictures of the process please!

Its wicked man, told you last night

Gutter talk!

Kiddin, cheers jj

gee split the light and take me a photo of the inside please they must be some of it we can paint

... splitting tonight.

This is sams thread lads....

Yeah... and I'm splitting my spare lights so that we can help Sam tint his lamps dude...

The fact that it will also help me, is a bonus!

Gestapo will get you, i think we need a how to section . . . .
