Munky's MK1 VTS :) - Now with Rodney's wheels!
 

Well!

After I fucked Chalky for the last time, I decided it was time for bigger and better things.

VTS Time!

Started off with this:



Got me this!



T Cut Badges, Gave it a good clean :)



<3 Wingnuts - He actually did all of the work while I took pictures!




Chalky looks sad in the background! :(



Small mods so far..

TCut Badges and Dewipered day after it was bought. Also put my tinted lights back on.



16v of goodness!



Bootiful!



Tinted rear quarters:



So weird having a shiny car for once :\



Looks a little high?



So much better... 60mm down. Thanks Kris!!!



As it stands currently:

'Every cloud has a silver lining.'

Looks really nice mate :)

nice car mate very nice engine lol ...... when you all next out ill come in in my new motor as i will need to give it a good old test lol

We're out all the time :) Give one of us a text when your about, and we'll let you know mate. Normally out in pitsea / festival / laindon / lakeside :)

Looks tidy, any plans?

Got a few ideas for it. Got some little bits on order for it, just until I can gather some more money! Ideally want to go for black / red / carbon fibre.

But carbon costs and arm and a leg to do properly!

Have a 421 mani in the post, so will put that and my straight through pipe on... Just to make it breathe easier :) Respraying alloys hopefully next!

Sounds good..

Enjoy the 16v's!

Looks very clean.........

Looks great matt, oh so u had it lowered already.lol thought u were doing it with gumbo?

Shame to see other car die :(
But this car is looking good and your plans sound good to. Will be looking forward to the progress on this one :)

Let me know mate, would be good to see you again.

I already have been! Its quick, its lovely :)

Haha, It was clean after Wingnuts gave it a good clean! I'm used to matt cars :(

Had it lowered on monday mate, going up with Gumbo on friday to get his done :)

It hurt to see my other car die :( But i'm looking forward to this one!


Tried to race a car the other day from a junction... Kinda beat me :(




Changed sidelights over.



Postman brought me a present!



and these

Brand of manifold?

Piper 4-2-1 :)

its looking sweeeeeettt :D ,,, you getting vts alloys for it??

I quite like having VTR alloys! I've been getting rid of all the VTS badges around the car, looks like a standard R now... So much more fun when you pull away from someone!

Couple of pics from the other day with BikeKid :)

nice and shiney. i likey!

Woah! Swirl marks! Get a machine polisher on that asap :)

Yeah... It was dirty as fuck that day :( Needs a good deep clean!

Not even been a week since saw it and it's already lowered :)

Great picys of both saxo"s.......

Small update really..

VT? Badges and 20mm Bonnet Raisers :)






Fitting Mani / Straight through / Backbox today... What a mission.





Was a bit busy stripping the other car today! :(




Anyway, Thanks to Wingnuts for putting up with me for the afternoon / evening and fitting the mani and exhaust with me.

Sounds like a friggin tractor due to the centre pipe blowing where I got annoyed with it and didn't tighten it up correctly... But sounds amazing at the back.

Will get a video up when its all done!

Black <3 i know what you mean having a shiny car for once, i've cleaned my new car like 3 times this week! :homme:

Just a few small thoughts...

Went down to southend the other morning after a lakeside meet, got there about 5.30 in the morning and skimmed stones on the beach with some mates!



My friend fixing the blow in my exhaust... Although he does not look impressed!



Some small modifications to the clamp...





But now I've been thinking. I've got a MK2 on my drive, I'm really tempted to transplant the front end and have a MK2 again! Tempted to put my 'badboy' style bonnet back on, and have smoked angels on again!



So tempting...

Haha Tom looks very happy!

Good work so far man!

cars looking good mate,
keep it mk1 though look loads better

Car's looking quality! :y:
&Can't believe how quickly you're getting things done! Wish I had that kind of motivation.

Very nice looking car there mate, looks very tidy, good buy :y:

Thinking of S wheels next... As much as I used to dislike them! Just think they look a bit more grown up then VTR wheels?

Ty :) He does look happy! I know how much he loves working on our saxo's..

Yeah, I quite like the angry MK1 look, but I have the MK2 sitting on the drive! I used to love my bonnet :( Plus an S reg MK2 would look cool!

Haha, Thanks man. It just annoyed me being standard, handling wasn't ideal when booting it around hence the being lowered!

Thanks :) Was a good purchase for the money! Its lovely to drive now.

mk2 front end transplant defo wld looks nice and if u decide u dnt want the badboy boonnnettt il buy it ;)

I got bored today...

I've got a plan for my bonnet and lights and grill, but until I can work out whether it will actually work... I did this.





Makes the front end look a lot smarter :)

Very nice, coming along nicely :)

looks very nice.

mk1 is so much "meaner" looking i would keep it like that.

if i can find a decent mk1 to replace my old one i will be sticking old school, though i think angels look much smarter on the mk2's.

crash looked quite bad too, bet you were gutted seeing your hard work like that, i was :( could have cried lol.

new car looks good! do a swap over to Mk2... it will be an experience

where did you get the bonnet raisers? ive just made some but they arent big enough :?

EDIT : I count that as £720 bargain!

looks smart buddy! plans on ur colour scheme sound gd!

eBay mate. Mine are 20mm :)

I can't believe you counted! The car actually cost me £600... :) The rest got blown on petrol on the way back! I've got a lot of plans, just haven't got the skills like you to pull things off!

Yeah, I was shook up seeing my old car fucked! :( I miss it!

Thanks man :) Should be good when it gets going!

tom looks proper pissed....moody arse lol

If it's anything to follow chalky... I look forward to this :)

20mm is the height I think I want looking at yours!

I made some adjustable bonnet raisers 2 days ago, they are 6mm or 12mm but I think I need to make another layer to increase to 18mm!

Dude if you think of something to do but arent sure about best way to do it then drop me a pm and il see if I can advise!

Oh and the power steering pump is the wrong one unfortunately :(, there are 3 different designs ive seen so far and I need the Mk2 vtr one as far as I can see :/

love the f40! never seen one on the road before though :S

would be a crime to convert a mk1 lol, best shape

i think you need a change in wheels...white maybe? or silver. dont really like vtr wheels :homme:
