Some serious work going into this, fair play to you.. White G60s must be a very rare beast these days...

Thank you, have registered now..

PM on its way.. Will work nicely with my plans for that weekend.. Haven't been to Stonor in years, last time i was there i had a very large oil leak on the way home through a pressure switch, i hope it doesn't happen again..

I hope that is the case as if mine ever need doing i really wouldn't want them polished..

I may be able to make this...Itll be in the daily though which is hardly stand material..

AFAIK = as far as i know.. And yes i think you are right that you need them all done.. When they are made the lips have lines in them that are from the pressing process, this is then lacquered over. If you machine any damage out you lose the lines.. Best to check with Mike..

AFAIK the original finish on the dishes cannot be reproduced.. Certainly whenever i have spoken to Mike he is of the opinion that RSs should not be refinished unless they really have to be for that reason..

These aren't the ones you need for a Corrado.. They can be painted though...

What about the ludicrous amount of wheels you have... Womble..

I can't imagine that Coxys old R32 car will be the same sort of money as JMCs sorted G60...

Key question here is what amount of money are you looking to part company with?

Genuine G60 wheels are years obsolete (round holes) but i believe Passat winters (D shaped hole and often referred to as G60s) may still be available...

No spillages, i wouldn't want Mrs Easypops kicking off.. Was a big job, can see why it may be better just to take the whole engine out... Is it on? All seems well and better for being properly laser aligned.. And a polish..

Front original finish on the RS.. polished gets lost against the tyre in that picture.. ChrisL.. Time to start taking some credit. Yes the car was amazingly well cared for but you now have the baton and the standard of work you have done to continue the overall quality of the car is second to none..

Just a revival on this for a moderator.. Can you help?

Have had a busy few days on the daily 8v. The clutch went on me, no slipping or smells just one minute i had gears and the next nothing. Genuine part sourced from Eurocarparts for a reasonable £80 and then the work began. I know people say the 8v is an easy to work on engine bay but the gearbox still has the same amount of room to come out so it was a bit of fiddle to get the box out and then to reposition it. The changing of the actual clutch takes about 10 minutes,the job however took hours.. All good now though, fresh clutch, coolant flush, oil and filter, air filter should keep the old girl going for a while. Car is off for tracking this afternoon after having to disturb some of the alignment This is one of the few pictures taken, definitely worth taking the front end off to help access.. Hes as modest as they come but thank you to Easypops for towing the car to his place and listening to me saying the gearbox was off about 50 times before it actually did leave the car...

CHs look so right on this car...

Looks brilliant, bet its an absolute monster as well... Any further plans?

Im surprised its taken so long.. Distance does put people off but i really think it shouldn't, i would always travel for the right car, you can't just get a Corrado anywhere especially if you have a list of must haves (colour etc)..

I removed this not long and since it went back on its rattles like fury... I can't get it back in correctly... Drives me insane...

Lovely attention to detail on that engine build.. Nice...

Car looks great.. Big fan of the moonroof, looks to be a spot on fit..

Blackberry vr in Low Fell next to the snooker club. Also a lovely type 19 mk2 golf a little further along the road

Strangely, i just tried it on this thread and its ok. If i do it on my members gallery i get the blocked comment.. How do i do a screenshot?
