[ToffeeRado 0]

So I went and checked out a this white corrado today and it followed me home :D

You don't see many nice white rado's time to change that :D I'm really loving the color.

Today I have to strip my jetta and get it ready for pic up then I start clean up on the rado, installing my cloth recaro interior and black dash a lot of work to come.

so today i had to strip my jetta causetti getting picked up by the crusher tomorrow, I got a bit of time to work on the rado put coils in the front and washed the car scubed and pressure washed the engine bay for a couple hours.

here some pics

Started off like this, unbolted subframe and stuff and me and my front just picked the front up and walked with the jetta, I thought it looked like a vw wrecking yard so I took a pic we moved it to the road after that.

Then the cleaning started

After a some hours its CLEAN :D

I hate dirt so I went crazy and clean the hell out of everything.

Phuk I don't know wtf the story is on this car, I know I'm 3rd owner though. I don't understand when people let perfectly good cars go to waste, when I saw this I thought "time to save another rado" :D I didn't care what shape it was in as long as there was no major rust cause I have everything I could possibly need down to wiring.

Holy crap :shock:

 

That is awesome work, true dedication.

 

Please keep us updated :)

And more progress, today it should be all back together with diff color panels. Tomorrow the interior goes in :D , then engine after I clean it up and do a few gaskets on it.

One fender is wrecked minor accident but doing vr fenders cause there wider so I can run wider wheels up front, doors had rust on them plus i hate hooking up and messing with all the locking mechanisms they were messed up in this car, and the middle brake light was rusting/falling out of the hatch, and bumpers are messed up as well so I'm putting all vr stuff on this car so every thing match wth teh vr engien that going inlater :D hood goes on soon to but heres my new look.

Black leather rear bench just some extra seats I have now
