I have just got my new project Car.. Project 996 ;D The car has been converted already to a 1.8 GTi from a 1.3 Driver by the last owner... I haven't had time to clean it yet, Its been sat outside for the last 2 1/2 years.... But I have taken the old grille and headlights out and replace them with a chrome grille and a set of Cross Headlights.... I'm in two minds of what to do with it, as I have a chrome Roof Rack and some chrome US Bumpers sat in the Garage and turn it into a show car or Turn it into a Track Car.... One thing I do need asap is a Set of Front Seats....

I'm off work tommorow and the cleaning will begin then... And more pictures taken then....
It needs dropping as its at standard ride hight.. Just got a set of Koni's and Eibach Springs off the Germany E-bay... so a 40mm drop on the cards....
The only issue with the car is its no seats.... Looking at for a cheap set of Porsche 'Tombstone' seats or just maybe a set just a set of Corrado Fronts.... We will see what turns up....

Aha you got one and what a choice, with the engine already pumped up. Plans sound pretty good, track mods with a simplistic style will be great. Did you contact that chap i mentioned and get it in them lock ups, or did you find summat closer?

it doesn't matter if it's a Morris Marina or a Toyota Celica - it's what you do with it that counts

Fantastic that could be a useful contact, is there anymore? I'm pondering hibernating the Cortina.

My mate is selling a full set of corrado vr6 seats if you are interested mate. You might be able to get them picked up when the wheels are picked up or something. If you want his phone number send me a pm and I'll send it to you.

I had a look on those sites mate, nothin i fancy there really, guess i'll just have to keep looking !
i will find one though, i haven't had a Golf in ages, i used to have 3-4 Mk1Gti's and a 1300 rally car, got into building escort rally cars for a living though and lost touch with my vw side, recently it's bitten me bad though !!
