i will when she's finish mate :wink:.

about 2 / 3 days ago, i had to dismantle the engine again coz it's sounds funny, and want to find out wat the problem is, i have 1 cylinder dead..only 3 of them working :cry: , so the engine should have another work and inspection , but with new parts,
it's gonna be a while i think, i should save some money to buy those parts, coz they were not cheap.. :cry:

wanna buy me some new wossner pistons, connecting rods, i've already buy my self a 1,8L crankshaft on Ebay the other day (don't know will it work or not, since my car is only 1.6L, i hope it work,coz i've done that to my old BMW.. and it works i put 3,5L crankshaft into 3,0L engine ) ,
some new sport valve springs, coz now she running on 290, and new sport flywheels and sport clutch..

i hope this year, she will be finish… :wink:

since i cant find the rear parcel shelf in here and theres no way to sent it from UK,due its fragile materials
one thing dat i could do, i'll design my self a new one, using cardboard and fiber, there will be a first aid kit box in it! 8)
i'll post the pic in 4 days..hope it works   (fingercrossed)

hi all,

Hi Dan..

yeah been off lately because i was focusing on lots of my boring day jobs.. , and i took a part in some sort of competition that held by ATS,
they wanted to make a comeback from their late 60' models (ATS 2500 gt sport coupe) i don't know if you knew about the car, coz i didn't have a clue at all at the time LOL..
couldn't spare my time even for a minute for alice, but i do correspond with our golfGod rubjohny via PM
askin golf datas due the modification i had on alice  

hey i could share some of my works on ATS and if ja like it you can help me by vote it (but if you don't like it you can vote someone else work..LOL) :
here's the link : http://www.unicoesemplare.it/progetto.asp?msg=Grazie

and this is the original car:


and this is my first interpretation of the car, i wanted to push the car's design direction into somewhere future, but then,
they emailed me that there were some sort of criterias that i should follow such as, we are prohibited to design our own head lamp or rear lamp, we should took it from other car/aftermarket lamp and compose it onto our design..and the style should refer to the old one.. thus, there's no point making new one  





after they told me dat, i had to change the direction into this:





and then i wasn't satisfied for the 2nd result end so, i made another design..and they kinda like it, because not long after i have submitted this 3rd design, i got and email from them
saying dat i should explore this specific direction:

Hey Shane
