Ok guys, I know I've been quite on this for the past year but had to sort out my health issues so the car wasn't touched for 9 months or so.. anyways I'm back and have a few updates. These were all till Christmas. More to come soon. I promise you very soon. I bought half of B7 with all the wiring an...

Them wheels should have come factory option on the passat. It looks spot on Seb

More progress today.. small but counts

AC DC does aluminium too but it costs 2k plus..

You got a TiG? Looks good, are you filling in all the holes and stuff is it? Must say I love TiG welding I'm tempted to get one myself. How much? I only have a DC TIG waiting on my AC/DC to arrive soon... Give me a buzz I'll be selling this one.. It's a Sealey unit paid around 600+vat but I'll let ...

Had a few hours to spare..

Nick- plan is to have it done 3 weeks before dubshed but I'm 2 weeks behind schedule. Was meant to have the car in the body shop to get the engine bay sprayed yesterday but plan is to get the engine rebuilt and back in before Christmas if absolutely nothing goes wrong

Well here's a few but not to many, I've managed to finish the left side wire tuck but been sick for 2 weeks and nothing has been done so 2 weeks behind schedule but planning to do Saturday and Sunday for 2 weeks to catch up. Vac pump /starting relay and ABS all wired in http://i577.photobucket.com/a...

had a quiet day in work meaning that I could work yesterday and today on the car, got a bit done over this weekend made a new bracket for the abs pump http://i577.photobucket.com/albums/ss217/robert11087/Mobile%20Uploads/2014-10/20141018_201638_zpsdwm8r4rq.jpg used the old bracket and bits of metal ...

what do you mean mate?

well as promised weekly update: stripped almost all the engine bay, a few wire left to pull in to the car, also took the dash off for the 4th time since I have the car... a few pics for those that are curious http://i577.photobucket.com/albums/ss217/robert11087/Mobile%20Uploads/2014-10/20141005_1108...

Not much of an update but had a few minutes free today and took the gearbox off and was surprised how new the clutch looked, no wear at all but I suppose motorway mileage wouldn't wear it at all :D http://i577.photobucket.com/albums/ss217/robert11087/Mobile%20Uploads/2014-09/20140930_113156_zpszxigm...

Well lads, it's been awhile and while most people thought I was gone off this or sold the car and moved on, I actually was collecting parts for the big final build... over a year of bidding on ebay, taking boats to Scotland and even driving to Germany for something small but well worth it as rare pa...

DUBSHED 2015 lol, if I had a reliable B6 I'd go to dubshed

Geez here we go again.... Another show season another small fortune going on the car another heart breaking season.... Looking forward to dubshed now... Car looks spot on as per usual.... I better get mine going soon, need a photo shoot of both cars after dubshed

Got out of bed nice and early to fix this problem and get the car back on the road in January after 6 months of lying there. dipped the caliper and removed all the red paint and left it to dry http://i577.photobucket.com/albums/ss217/robert11087/20131229_120304_zps6032d4b7.jpg got new pistons and se...
