So I was up in my garage/workshop doing some work to my Mk3 Golf. Started up the Rolla and figured why the hell not, it was a damn nice day..

 

 

 

:cool:

And yes, it drives worse than it looks.. Quite an achievement really :laff:

Wow,you can actually get away with driving that on the road,I'm impressed!

There's a car there? I'm salivating over the snow banked roads, now that would be fun! :)

that would be great fun in the snow....

does this thing have springs in it :laff:

 

do u plan on ever fixing the body rust?

I just love everything about that car.......

 

So gonna visit you one day and buy a shitter for luls in the snow.

that is orgasmic i always wanted to turn a wagon with that much rust into a track car!

 

I'm jealous :(

That is awesome, the advantage of the rust is so that theres no stress if you lose it into a snowbank :laff: Scary part is tho I see cars in that condition (& worse) driving around our roads every day... :blinks:

If you're ever in the bowels of Sunshine West you see some absolute shockers that nearly make you crash as you're staring at the damn thing wondering how the heck its still going let alone registered! :blinks:

 

After watching that video I needs to gets myself to Norway ASAP!! Is it sad that I find that kinda activity appealing?

So I was up in the workshop yesterday, dismantled the front end and started painting the bay primer red.. What do you guys think, an '82 Toyota hot rod.. Can it be cool? :cool: Stay tuned for pics..

You can't make it look worse / more awesome than it is :lolcry:

Usually when I'm in my workshop I do work on my Golf Mk3, paint and body work. I do get sidetracked from time to time though, especially waiting for primer or filler to dry. Then I do the occasional work to my KE.. I've started a wire tuck I've been wanting to do for ages. Battery moved to the boot, fuel filter removed, coil turned upside down and relocated to fuel filter placement. Coil wires will be hidden inside the chassis leg. I'm actually wondering if this is standard placement on some cars because it fits amazingly like a glove. Headlight washer tank removed, and you'd be looking at a radiator with a built-in expansion tank or a small, chromed expansion tank placed somewhere more out of sight than the original unit. The plan is to create a wire tuck with the white car I'm working on here, and use it in the future for my beige project that someday will be done :rolls:

 

 

Car fires right up. On a final product the battery cable will together with fuse box etc be hidden, battery tray and all brackets removed etc.

 

Or maybe just ditch the fuzzy 4K for a cleaner looking 4A-GE altogether.. :laff:
