RichyGT Posted January 7, 2008 Share Posted January 7, 2008 Hey everyone been on here for a while but just picked up my project car so thought i'd say hi and post some pictures up now. I just bought 2 gt's with 3 engines and 2 gearboxes for £400 but they're in bad condition so thought i'd bring one of them back to its former glory.I've got 2 choices one has been rear ended but not too badly so is repairable and the other is engineless and needs a lot of work to get it back to good condition.Im thinkin about repairing the white one as it wont take much to do and will get away without a respray for now or should i strip it and put everything on the black one. bearing in mind the white one is newer the old one has the striplight at the back.The long term is to do a full strip and rebuild in the summer and a track engine forged td04 build as me and a mate are going to build identical engines from scratch for the track with my spares.Im studying motorsport technology at derby uni and im heavily into cars but any guidance and help will be greatly appreciated.Thanks, RichThe damagePic from my trip to london the othr dayand my old polo Quote Link to post Share on other sites
