biggrim 0 Posted April 13, 2004 J-DUB is looking like it'll be a beast Henny.... you crazy fool!!!! You going to make it to inters with her then? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Henny 0 Posted April 13, 2004 She WILL be at inters, she may not have been painted by then, but, frankly I don't care about the paint at the moment! ;) :-P I took a video while she was running... I'll post it in a minute once I've uploaded it... :D I'd like to just say a big "THANK YOU!" to everyone who's left nice comments here, and has helped me with supplying parts, advice, or just keeping me sane (or as sane as I ever get! ;) ) and cheering me up when things got tough during this build and helped me to get her this far... 8) THANK YOU ALL! 8) :D Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Jim 1 Posted April 14, 2004 Because Henny has gone out to work on his car some more, i've took the liberty of hosting the little video of his engine running for him! http://homepage.ntlworld.com/chicane-uk/hennysrado.AVI Best off doing a Right Click -> Save Target As ....

Henny 0 Posted April 14, 2004 Cheers Jim, 8) It's not much of a video, but that was taken about 30 seconds after she came to life... 8) I would have filmed it as she started, but she beat me to it! 8) :lol: :twisted: Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Henny 0 Posted April 17, 2004 Well, J-DUB just sailed through an MOT and is now taxed, insured and road legal... Let the good times roll! :D 8) My garden looks really odd now 'cos there's no Corrado sat in it! :? :lol: Just gotta tweak the idle (it's a bit too low for my liking) and put 1500 miles on her, then I can fit the red tops, SNS and 3.5FRP and get her rollin' roaded... 8) Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
24V Renshaw 0 Posted April 17, 2004 Good effort mate. Its the best feeling when you get a car back on the road after a long time working on it. Mind you I have never had one off the road quite this long!! :) Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
DaveStorm 0 Posted April 17, 2004 Well done J-DUB! :) Guess we'll be seeing a lot less of you on the forum now she's back on the road, especially with 1500 miles to rack up!? :lol: Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Henny 0 Posted April 17, 2004 ...hmmmm, wonder if I can hook up my mobile to my laptop and stick it through my TV system?!? Mobile Forum time... :D :roll: :lol: Cheers guys! 8) Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Ad's 16v 0 Posted April 18, 2004 Well done Henny. Can't wait to see J-DUB at inters. All that hard work obviously paid of....... 8) Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Henny 0 Posted April 18, 2004 went a bit mad with the camera today... see what you think.... 8) I'm still in 2 minds about the front bumper, especially as I can't get the car into my garage without it catching! :? I think I may go back to a standard bumper and sell the RS one on... Dunno yet though.... :? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Bojmobile 0 Posted April 18, 2004 Dashboard looks great Henny - where does the TV sit? The cd player position? Is it hidden or do you attach it? I aint too fussy on the RS bumper - looks a bit Bad Boyish to me. Do you like the styling? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
