These are very rare, to find one that wasn't bashed and trashed by a builder is even rarer! Nice having the Scirocco front seats, GT clocks and steering wheel too. I reckon it was a good move doing the suspension properly with a shock and spring kit. Might not be quite as low but still looks great. The 165/60's will suit it too, go nice on them steels. Prefer it without the splitter though (8th and 9th pic down) really looking the business there. Whilst a modern (turbo!)diesel conversion would be fantastic, I can't think of a VW engine that would fairly easily fit without lots of fabrication. The 1.9 from the 6n would go in but it's a bit of a plodder to say the least! The Polos are such a light car/van too, it'd be easy to make it nose heavy. If it were mine I'd go for the ubiquitous 3F GT conversion. 75 bhp out of the box, excellent economy and pretty quick up to around a ton for a standard 1.3. They'll go well beyond that, but it's all about acceleration with them. GT van FTW! Keep the pics coming, Cheers, Richard. iv been able to trace alittle bit of history about him,it turns out he was used as a painters van for many years. and the last owner only used him as a domestic van. me mates got a gt lump with everything i need sat in the garage that I'm bugging him for so we will have to see I'm waiting till I get the other tyres I think thats going to make it look lower,id love coilovers so i can get him the hight i realy want
