Seeming as I cant afford an engine swap just yet, decided to pay the bay some attention and tidy up what i have at the moment. At least if I do open the bonnet it's in a presentable condition.

Painted the engine, rocker, gearbox and the odd metal bits in black so the horrible corroded metal is ...

Absolutely stunning car, good job!

Ahh thankyou means alot!

Time to get it in a half presentable condition ready for Players. Shall be the Polo's first show of 2013, not to mention the first show with the cage, seats, wheels and everything else together ...

Yet ANOTHER setback... Came out of work to find my rear quarter creased and dented where someone has SMASHED their car door into my car. Removed a section of paint from the shoulder line of the car and dented above and bellow it. Not even a note to say sorry.

Pet hate is people bumping car doors ...

Wheel update..

Started the refurb of the Rota's. Lips are spidered and corroded and the paint was getting re-done anyway.

Usually take stuff like thids to a professional, but thought i'd have a crack at it myself. Results are completelly by hand, no machine polishing or buffing.

Started on 120 ...

Well, this car has made my mind up about which car to buy for my first! Thanks!

i love the arden blue + white wheel combo. looks stunning!

Awh thanks! haha They are awesome little cars!

Looks great mate, keep it up :D

Cheers!


Lovin the thread car looks great especially with the new ...

Considered selling up a couple weeks ago. Bored and cant do much at the moment as i have a lot of maintenance bits and need to fix the bits of paint that are letting the size down (bonnet after USC etc.).

Some of you will be happy that ive decided NOT to sell up. I think i'd miss the little thing ...
