Plan. I'm going to return the rad and buy a water pump instead. Should be going to pick up my parts from pitstop on saturday. I ordered an oil cooler today from them too! A long thin one that sits behind the frint bumper cut-out.

Getting excited now.

crikey. Sorry mate, but I think the central heating company that I work for filled that position only last week...

In the 5 years that I have owned my GT I've never actually worked my mpg out. I always fill it up too..

too late.

i've ordered a load of parts. Intercooler is being posted to me tomorrow c/o hayesey. I went to VW today and bought a new oli filter and fuel filter. I have to go back to VW to geta rear engine mount, manifold to downpipe gasket and a rocker cover gasket. Went to ECP and bought a new rad, 2 new fuel...

yeah, and to undo. Was a little scarey having to stand on the wrench to undo a tri-lock.....

Engine will be in mine by next monday. Have just ordered a new braided oil pipe for the charger and some spark plugs from Pitstop. Will be getting 2 new petrol pumps, filter, oil filter, ht leads, gaskets, and maybe a 4 branch this week. Jamie, did the car use a lot of petrol?? The tank was rusted t...

The brakes will be sold complete. I imagine that stuff ike that will end up on ebay.

Once I've stripped the car I will let people know what I do and don't ahve.

The wheels are all un-kerbed as far as I could see. Front tyres are scrubbed pretty bald on the insides.

What are they worth?

Glad she's ok..

Sounds like a strange one. I like cars that have been driven into ditches. Wanna sell it??

Yeah, jamie did a nice job with this one. It's all greasy now though from follong the flatbed home in the raid.. But the paint under the dirt looks mint when you rub it!

Gonna replace the rocker cover gasket as it looks like it's leaking, and I'll swap the inlet manifolds from my GT.

Chassis leg is toast, and the roof is creased behind the sunroof.

I can think of one person who isn't going to like this. It's arrived. http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v47/dubenvy/random/side.jpg Jamie, it looks like this was a fantastic little car. I've gotta say though that this is the first smashed up car of mine that I've stood and looked at and smiled. Make...

got it.
