My Mk1 2.0 16v ABF on twin 45 weber carbs

Just delivered four proxdes 124 Quid pleased with that.

So what's left to do. Well get tyres fitted to new rims. Sort two water leaks nothing major just thermostat housing and heater control valve. Then run up to temp double check everything is working as it should. Then off to the rollers for balancing, service and jetting of the carbs and a mot. Garage has a three week waiting list so I am booked in for the second week of November. Then I will see if all this work has been worth it lol. I will keep you all posted.

Great price on the tyres

Can't fault there service

So I sold the tri spokes and the panasport rims. Thought I would treat myself to a brand new set even got the Mrs permission can't wait

So the day has finally came I have finished my Mk1.A little bit excited to say the least. Got to say it has been a long hard road made easier by the guys on this forum for bits of advice and guidance a big thank you. Booked in for the Mot and rolling road tune balancing and jetting of the carbs etc.

She does need a good clean and polish as has been stuck in the garage for 11 month's 

It looks great, you must be well chuffed!

Good luck for the MOT, keep us posted how it goes

Steal price on the tyres  

Can you let me know (if you don't mind) what the cost on the rolling road and carb set up costs you.

Got twin 45's on mine, and think it over fuelling a little and would be great to know a ball park on what rolling road and set up costs

Hope it all goes well, car's looking great

Rich will definitely let you know bud mine is a fair bit out so I imagine it won't be cheap plus have a few other odds and sods sorted. Thanks for the nice comments.

Off to the rollers at last. Can't wait to get it back.
