Unfortunately I'm not enough of a wheel whore to be able to identify the wheels, but they look sweet. Nuff dish 8)

Looking excellent, did you clean up the block etc yourself? Looks like new!

Cheers for the comments.
The block was chemicaly clean by the engine reconditionors place where I had the machine work done, and they sprayed it black to keep the rust at bay till I could paint it.
The wheel is mocked up where I would like it sitting, so hopefully it will be somwhere near when front suspension is all built back up.
Will have some more pics up soon.
Cheers
Pete

My 256 Vauxhall brakes only just fit in 8O , need to move a balancing weight as it hits the caplier and have it put somewhere else.
Might even get some camber adjustable top mounts :wink:
Your mk1 is looking sweet on the steels by the way 8)
More pics on their way.

Yeah that would be cool, I have a bit of time off, just come back from vw, got all my new mounts, apart from I got given the wrong one for the g'box mount :roll:
I should have the bottom end completely built up this weekend, and a few other bits done.

I haven't really bothered with build threads as I just end up doing it, and forget to take pics, tho I have taken some more recently. Plus i want my mk1 to be a surprise, and people will see it at a meet, or show car park (not showing it, it's built for me :wink: ), and they won't have seen it before fully finished.
Anyway heres some super shonky mob phone pics from a few months back, Ive done quite a bit more now tho, but its still not running yet but not far off. Weathers too nice at the mo, always out riding and getting away for weekends

coming along nicely m8 8)
Cheers mate, hows yours? Last time I rememeber you were sorting a few things out with it.
I am currently sorting the fueling etc, and the last bit of lenghting and shortening of the 16v loom at the mo.
Cleaning paint off all the injectors lines, metering head, trottle body etc, took bloody ages, and then I masked all the metering head up and injectors lines to give it some paint.
Pete.
