Andy Brookes 0 Posted March 23, 2005 Do it woody! Popped round to see James Renshaw last night, had a look at his project. If I had the chance of a complete cupra i'd do the same as james is doing....ie transfer everything electrical and dash etc to go with the new engine. Its going to be very neat.
