    Default XE build (finally!)

    Just realised that I haven't got a WIP thread on here.
    Currently turning my J reg mk2 1 litre into an XE. Basically removed the 1lt engine, fitted a 1.6 GSi lump, never used it, stripped it again, fitted a new front panel and thats about it so far.
    Heres a pic of the paint going on, using a genuine vaux colour. Try have a guess those who don't know. Not laquered yet...



    Cheers
    Andy
