Jim 2 Posted June 29, 2010 So Judith.. when are you getting a G60? :) Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
KIPVW 0 Posted June 29, 2010 PMSL Not a chance mate! the only reason I dared never to have a G60 is I wouldn't be able to sleep thinking it's going to break :shrug: I know it sounds negative but thats me i guess Lol! Wanted one years ago but just never took the plunge, completely love the sound though! Awsome. Jude says she has enough :lol: Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Yandards 0 Posted June 29, 2010 Looking good Paul, the rear light clusters need a good buffing though - the low sun is really showing the washing marks Been busy doing some buffing on the 16vG60 for BVF, it was/is in a right mess after 3 and half years in the garage. :( Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
RW1 0 Posted June 30, 2010 Well done Paul. Another challenge for your skills then? Looks good already, sure it will be superb when you've finished. Not even 8am and he's out there cleaning it. Sounds like concoursing it to me :lol: Oh yes, don't need a headlight loom to light up this route do we :lol: and where its heading :D Soooooooooo, the red leads and Koni's ain't coming off after all. .

bruny 0 Posted July 1, 2010 Congrats Kip, a nugget at last, and a pretty good one by the looks of it. Look forward to seeing it in the flesh. See you at the BVF mate :wave: Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest Posted July 1, 2010 I'm surprised he's not been over to show you yet. Plenty of people in and around Sheffield have :nuts: No doubt he will be over soon though I think he's working more Wednesdays off soon. See you down south Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
jazzdevil 0 Posted July 1, 2010 Saw the 'real' version of you Magic Bus avatar pic at Goodwood today Kip and thought of you... it's there as part of the Stars, Cars and Guitars display which also included Billy Gibbon's 'Cadzilla' and James Hetfield's '36 Auburn Dovetail Speedster :offtopic: Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

It's good to know the Magic Bus is really apprectiated and is being shown in all the right places. I wonder if it will turn up at Tatton again this year?

voo51 0 Posted July 8, 2010 I am so envious, I Didn't realise how rare these Nugget Corrados are until chatting with some of the guys at BVF. I know you said you won't, but how can you resist creating a concours nugget??!! :D Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I know you said you won't, but how can you resist creating a concours nugget??!! :D I did say that but i dont know yet, still lots to do on the VR including full suspension overhaul back to factory spec plus rear axle refurb & bushes new front track rods drop links and i may as well get the subframe off for coating while i'm at it :cuckoo: oh and new brakes inc hoses and compensator. Not sure i can afford to do the Nugget :lol: Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
