righteo
Little update, got the other side in paint yesterday and started putting some bits back on today.
Other side in paint,
Plan now it to get it back in one piece with the help of Ash and get it running again.. take it for a drive up and down the private road a couple of hundred times... and then throw it into MOT.. laugh as it fails miserablly on emmisions and see what needs replacing if anything. This is after I service it..
Once anything broke is replaced I'll throw a standard exhuast on, standard manifold and standard induction and hope to fook it goes through. It scraped through last year.. this year it has not been run so hopefully that will help.
Sort brake cylinder out, paint other little bits and bobs.. heat wrap le fanny mould. Finish the strut brace that I started painting yesterday. Replace rusty bolts and hinges etc fit the kent cam sticker after re-painting the rocker cover again lol... buy new battery terminal screw thingy ma bobs.
Finally steam clean teh engine bay, and make it look all shiny and shit.
fuck me I have allot to do by next month :'(
Anyone want to place bets on what car I will be taking to the ring haha?

Right,
Massive thanks to Craig (saxo180), got a mark 1 zaust on now with the CAT in. Middle pipe is not attached but i'll explain to the MOT guy on monday that he might as well pass it because as soon as I get home i am putting the piper back on lol
Massive HUGE thanks to yates and mark51 for servicing it, was funny as fuck.
Dismantling my car though while i am driving it.... HARSH lol
Car is now up and running, ready for it's MOT on Monday morning.
Needs a new headlight but thats getting sorted saturday morning, *hopes to god it passes*
Plans for wheels = They will go gloss black when the tyres get replaced next week. Going for the stealth look. Mind is set up on this one now.. did a photoshop and it looked fooking sexual.
Major clean over the weekend with Ash as well (he does not know yet), so hopefully the detailing will go all well.
I can't wait to drive it down the lanes on Monday to the MOT centre... feel like a kid waiting for christmas lol

About time mate  lol!
Glad you managed to get everything done on it. Is it going to make Germany this year then? This and Adamsax's are my favourite MK1s on here without a doubt, sure you'll look after it too mate.
What happens with Green one now?

Don't know what I'll do with my green one... I have had it 4 years and in a gay kind of way I feel 'attached' to it. Fucking hate it but it's never let me down lol
We will have to wait and see I guess.

Money was the only reason mate and I am so happy I did...
I'd still be piling money into it now if I never did. Reality check - Stop spending thousands of pounds on tin cans lol
