Yea go on then please mate :cool:
Cool, will do later on/tomorrow and PM them you :)
Another weekend gone, and little time spent on the car im afraid lol lol
Ian came over today to get the windscreen, but managed to break it trying to get it out, fail :(
He also dropped me some front struts off and a mk1 dash, top guy!
I did manage to find the time to remove the side rear windows, and the rear window though, and fit the front struts.
Just the doors left to remove, im going just grind the hinges off the car... lol
CBA with door pins lol
And i just need to chuck either some rear springs, or rear dampers on the rear so it'll roll. And that shall be it :(
Want it gone this week, hoping have the new shell next weekend :)
Hoping for a bit of Boooooost for this shell too ;)
All sounds good Ad, glad things are going well, so Booost eh? let on the cards then?
Scott
The plan is a standard/ph1 let.
Keeping a f20 box etc
Dont want to go mad power wise, to keep it reliable and a bit more predictable on track etc :)

Door pins were being a right t**t, so i ground the hinges off the shell lol
Sad, like looking back at my white nova :(
Ah well, it was well past its best anyway!!!
The replacement will handle better,brake better,be faster, and make tish noises :D
what the saying 'ill never have another' lol
Be different this time though, it wont be a daily driver etc etc....
Good man, and you'll want it to be daily after awhile i bet.
I might have a green dashboard and interior next week if you've any interest in putting one back into your new shell?
DDDDdddddddddddddddddddddddddoooooooooooooooooooo it! ^
Green FTW.
I got John to remove the green interior!!!! lol
Yes it suits the cars age, but its green!!!
Ive got a grey mk1 dash, is horrid looking though, will probably just throw my gsi one in! lol

go gsi dash mk1 dashes are wrong
should be good when together the new one have you got a motor
Its now finished and ready to fcuk off.
It will be gone for Monday if i can find someone to shift it(with it being just a shell)
New shell should be here next week sometime, and im off work next week too, so have time get some stuff done.
The not so good news is that im moving into a flat, so need deposit money etc for that, so a LET engine is off for the time being! Just going to stick the standard XE in for now, and see whats what. It'll also avoid hassle with IC/crossmember cutting etc etc, and seeing as there hasnt been much interest in anyone buying the xe, i'll just chuck it in..... lol
Are you seem welding the green one Ad? Iirc John didn't bother did he?
John didnt nope. But its a solid shell, which a lot of people say dont reallly need welding.
But as im going to be tracking it etc, im welding it up whilst the interior etc is all out :)
Looking forward to the new wip already
Few pics:
Picked this up last night, full 6point SD cage :cool:
