    Took a while but happy with the finished project. Found a thread on here witch gave me loads of tips on how to do the bodywork. Well worth paying the membership fee!!!! Got loads of confidence to do the rust on the drivers door now

    Sadly I didn't do the welding it was already done. I've just cleaned all the wax oil off it! Theirs 2 gaskets on the inlet manifold at each end, mine looked in good shape so I didn't bother changing them.

    Took the inlet manifold off and rocker cover to have a go at polishing them up for that mirrored look.post-93310-13960431056_thumb.jpg

    Bit of elbow grease, sandpaper, polish and a few hours and look what happened( great sense of achievement )

    Oh and the none return value on the breather fell to bits when I took it off

    Hi everybody, I have been lurking about on here since September that is when I bought my first vr6. It's dragon green with 142000 on the clock, an old lady had owned it for the past 16 years with vw service history up to 10000. This is it when I first bought.post-93310-13960416893_thumb.jpg

    Since then I've had the bonnet painted, new wheel bearing front and back and new starter motor.

    I've bought the car as a hobby, something to tinker about with in the garage. I work long hours and spend time with the family at weekend. I really enjoy spending a few hours a night playing about with it. So I thought it was about Time I started a build thread.
