dieseldragon 0 Posted June 15, 2010 Author Report Share Posted June 15, 2010 Car needs painting anyways as the sun has made a mess of it. I am going to smooth all the panels out, widen the arches very slightly, but was thinking of doing something a little more adventerous, while I am at it. I messed about with fotoshop, but sometimes helpful to see one thats been done.Just to clarify I mean a mk3 VR6 turned into a pick up, not a VR engine put into something else. I have promised that this will be my final project ever. (until I am bored of it and do something else) Link to post Share on other sites

For example cant change exhaust back box, suspension or wheel size without it, so doing the project requires a lot of planning!I remember good old UK days when you just do it, all you needed to do was tell insurance...
