Just started to strip ready for the new front end, pondering wheels though now, so many to choose from, what size then the drop, what kits the best? Still using for building work so need something good quality

[mention]Papa Bear [/mention] you would need one with a pretty big bed, luckily I’ve got a big Haas for sale 65K and it’s yours . Seriously though that does look good it’s a real nice touch.

Very nice, yeah I’m sure you could come up with a nice jig and knock them out. Just remember your datum and tool heights, it’s not fun when you mess up on a CNC haha

Finished the @Lister79 sh*te pipe fuel filter mod today.
My new engine cover came from VW without a badge. I saw this mod and wondered if I could adapt to suit me. Bought the pipe and cut around the fuel lines to fit. Sanded, and gave it numerous coats of Hycote Gloss Black, sourced a few Velcro tyraps from work, and a second hand Polo rear badge from fleabay. Going to get the cover painted professionally ImageImage
