what going on with the mk1 dude is it terminally ill?

 

nah m8 it wasnt dying,i killed it :? :(

 

i was planning to rebuild it into a track/show car but ive abandonned ship.

(really dont know what to do with it to be honest,i basically ruined a perfectly good fun mk1)[schild=5 fontcolor=000000 shadowcolor=C0C0C0 shieldshadow=1]why! why! why![/schild]

 

got to the stage of bare shell,sat on a rolling/flipping jig,and part prepped for seam welding etc...

update:

 

took plastic out of airbox,and bodged a temp boost return mod.

put the plastic back in the air box as it sounded too drony for me :oops:

 

found oil in the charger inlet/outlet too :(

 

ordered a boost return kit to keep me happy for now. 8)

 

oh,got some badges too,maybe going above the side repeaters,or the (still to be fitted) plain black mudflaps?

Looking very shiny there Neil! Definitely does need that lowering kit on it though... ;) 8)

 

Have a look at the photo shoot that Phil K did for myself and hAAk - should give you some ideas for angles to photograph from! Early evening light is really flattering, and business parks and industrial estates are always good locations IMO...

Definitely! Good to see some nice uses of the rule of thirds there mate!

 

Very 8)

 

EDIT: A good trick is to always turn the front wheels so that the one visible to the camera is square-on to it, like in Phil's shots...

Very nice 8)

How much did you drop it by? I've still got to get my ones fitted, but I'm worried about dropping it too much. Bascially there's loads of speed bumps near here, and I dont want to wreck my sump :(
