[Nafoff]

[couzens]

[Weeman]

[Ian_182]

Damn and blast it

 

[Winston]

Few up dates

All the welding is done... for the bargain sum of £120, he even welded the patches in the bed... I still can't get the indicator lights working on the clocks and the horn is temperamental but got over christmas to figure them out

Im to skint to get it re-MOT'd, taxed and insured before christmas, so im aiming for early January to have it on the road.... Now ive scrapped my white 5. I have brought it home and it is in my back garden so it was rude not to try on its future shoes

Roll on coilovers and fitting the flipped axel FFS!!!!!! lol

 

[Ian_182]

This is going to look good

 

[couzens]

yay! this is gonna be epic sir!

 

[Mark One]

really want a caddy with a towbar atm.
Could a caddy be made capable enough (and legal) for towing small cars on trailers? Don't know anything about trailer laws.
PD150 diesel would be perfect

 

[Winston]

I plan to tow my 5 rally car on an A-frame... a full trailer and car might be a bit much for the little 1.6 Diesel and you ideally need to do a 5 speed conversion.... mines a 4 speed .. slow and steady wins the race LOL

 

[Nafoff]

get a mark 4 VAG diesel engine in...tourque all day long...lol

good work winny

 

[BioHzrd]

I love Caddys !

 

[Robclio98]

[mini-valver]

My brothers was a 1.6 petrol 4 speed, lol. Awesome dude, get it dropped though, fast!!

 

[Liam:]

Looking good m8 needs to be slammmmeeedddd, looks like a monster truck with small wheels.

 

[christian rea]

A 198k 1.6D covered in diesel, chip fat, dirt and oil... Im going to drive it till that lump gives up and find a Mk3 Golf TDi to donar it

winston can i interest you in those cups still? you need a gtd engine in there amate ,theres a hole car on caddy owners for dirt cheap and just needs a oil cooler fitting

and ive got a 5 speed box if your interested?

 

[Nafoff]

[Winston]

Im still on a rimage ban dude lol

GTD lumps are awesome... but ive got to kill the 1.6 first lol

6x14's rare ATS cups Mr bone.... wouldn't fit over your brakes

 

[couzens]

[Winston]

No up dates...

Still needs MOT, tax and insurance lol

Im limited to the amount of wheels i can keep at home

 

[Soph]

Gaz (BF) always enjoys reading your projects winston, and he says this looks like it's going to be another great winston project. Keep up the work.

 

[couzens]

[Winston]

Cheers Gaz (bf) lol

[Robclio98]

The spare axel I have is already flipped... I still need to get some early beetle shocks tho

I'd love to fit lowering blocks ontop of the flipped axel but i still need it to be able to take a pretty hefty load
