weedwhacker 0 Posted July 13, 2005 hiya peeps.. this is my rado.... its taken a long time to get here but ive finaly done it, i have loads of history with vws... in the past ive has a passat, a wedge, 5 mk2 golfs, 4 sciroccos, and a couple of beetles. mrs has a newbie at the min but she can have that cause ive got my corrado.. it was purchaced on a budget.... and that how im going to do it up, bit by bit... im doing it that way basicly cause im skint,, also cause i want this to be my own car that i have done myself.. i have started with a cheap one ( standing me realy at about £200 all told) i wont bore you with all the details about getting here as itm reads like war and peace... but here is a pic of how he looks at the min minus the venom alloys..

weedwhacker 0 Posted July 15, 2005 well the name weed whacker, i have no idea where that one came from, you know how it is when the screen promps you for a user name and your mind goes blank.. i guess in good at total random zhite... the wheels on it now are a set of 15" imolas, ( borrowed ) from my brothers garage.. well i did let him know after i had fitted em( a week later).. he he he. if i told you i realisticly swapped the rado for a ps2 and a dvd player i wouldnt be lying to you.. a little wheeling and deal goes long way.. all i have to do is get it running right, get the pink bodywork sorted out, and slam its ass to the floor.. then ill be happy. :evil: Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

weedwhacker 0 Posted July 15, 2005 funny thing about the number plate... its a G reg so you would thinh 89-90 .... wrong. on the v5 its a92. but it was built in 89..... do you think the plate is worth something then? sell the plate and put the money into buying nice new bits to add to the engine bay....

weedwhacker 0 Posted July 16, 2005 weedwhacker was just a ramdom thing in my head when i signed up. the wheels i have on at the min are 15" imolas. and lastly do you think the reg number is worth some money then. if so il sell it and put the profits in to the rado. got a set of lowering springs and shox to go on in the next couple of weeks.. :wink: Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
