Project bogey man. It's legal :-)

Both cars look very nice, are you sure you don't want to come to the shire weds night?

LOL, sorry mate i have the mk meet tomorrow and the mrs wont let me play 2 days in a row! lol

Also didnt get to mot today…….. tomorrow all being well!!!

both look stunning, but can you straighten the rear wiper on bogeyman a touch and have it closer to the bottom edge?

Its actually the blade that has movement in the holder, it depends on how it comes to a stop. also cant get it any closer to the bottom? the arms meant to sit upright not sideways, but i need to adjust the linkage to work opposite. on my to do list lol

u bringin this one tonight? did it pass the MOT?

If It goes through a mot then I should be ok to bring tonight

Wow 2 and a half months to fully rebuild a mk1 properly.

Hate to say it, but very impressed mr funk.

Actually the shell diddnt arrive until the 19th so not quite 2 months :-)

No mot today tho! Poxy emissions machine is broken (I thought get it) so tomorrow now.

On the plus side I have been driving it round the farm, really picks up well and stops very well :-) need to put stock mounts on the engine tho, vibration from engine is horrid on idle.

See you laters Anthony

Come on then where's the pics?

Page 10  :mrgreen:

Also on a down note, still no mot, went to take it today and smoke pouring from engine, 1 of the carbs leaking fuel on the manifold

Have stripped it down and ordered 2 rebuild kits, also found one of the internal return springs had broken, guessing thats why i couldnt get them to idle nice.

how they looked before


Now



and this is the cleaning solution after!! it was translucent pink!

begger that mate!!!!!!  that's fiddly stuff!!!!  You must be gutted but seriously loving the look of her!!!!  Apart from the rear reflector thing by the number plate that you love  :roll:  :mrgreen:

its not on there at the moment due to time issues for mot, i might fit it on or not......depends how im feeling. lol

Is this the reverse psychology where I say don't do it and you put it on?

In all honesty mate I think it looks awesome but think the reflector thing spoils it's simple clean look  :dontknow:

ill fit it then just to annoy you

Err ok fit it,….. I want you to and stuff…..

Postman brought me one of these today :-)


Just need to work out how to fit it?

What is that and why has it got four tarantula legs  8O  8O  8O

Lol, that's my wooden hand under it!
It's a centre speaker, fits above centre consol! Just need 1 speaker in the front and 2 rears. 3.1 surround sound! Lol

It's back running now :-) fully stripped cleaned and rebuilt carbs. Also replaced the linkage rose joints.

Been tinkering and it's running really nice now, exhaust rasps :-)
