Now Here's how that bonnet works. In order for it to come forward, it needs to come up about 40mm. So we had to slot the hinge and then we added spring's to pull the hinge up, then the bonnet is held down in place by a bonnet catch out of a beetle custom mounted, and released by a shortened golf cable under the dash sweet! Here's the pics's

Cheers Dave!

Hey, It's been a while I know but I did go to Europe for a month which put a slight hault to proceedings on the build. However I have picked up the Engine from Leon last week and slotted it in place to start mocking up the turbo, plumbing etc... As for the rest of the car, well I can sit in my car turn the front wheel's push all the pedals with my feet and change all the gears with my gene berg shifter and It feels good! I will have some pics In a couple of day's.

Cheers Dave!

Hey Guy's, It's been too long I know. We have made some big changes and have decided to go EFI. I have purchased another T04 Turbo and dropped the car into Leon's to have it fitted. We're going to mount it somewhere over the Gear box because we have a lot more flexibility with it's location now and this will help with weight distribution. 2000cc Injectors have been purchased and the Microtech system is also on it's way. I will keep you posted.

Cheers Dave!

Hey guy's, It's been a while between updates but I have found a minute to sit down and actually take some of the photo's off my phone and post them up for you.

I'll start with the sacred mounting of the Tacho!
