Then a few weeks back dad bought me a gti wreck for my 18th. Desided to go a heart transplant into the nova. Since then ive slowly been working on it, desiding on what i want to keep and what i dont. Plans are put 4AGE in and do a brake conversion (disks all round). Also desided on a few outside changs. Tho i cant put my finger on which one i wanna do.

Pics of GTi, started on the motor today with help from my mate bill (MSF17)

Almost everything has been done by myself in my backyard with help from some mates and my dad. Hope i didnt leave anything out if i did well sorry.

Updates soon........

Thanks buddy, everyone said the red lip would look like s##t when i was painting it but they came around, personly i love it. I really wanna go a two tone on the car but i love the way it is atm so i dunno. As for the grill, its almost done, just gota do some final sanding then paint it. Also gona put some black mesh in behind it

Gave her a bath this arvo and pulled some more things off the GTi, in a couple of weeks the 4age will be out and ready for a rebuild then the nova takes a spot in the shed and its on. Cannot wait for it to be finished!!
