100% correct

Well after a really early start this morning I have sold my Golf to a guy from Dartford, he has big plans for more power, a roll cage and getting it road legal again, I agreed to deliver it for some beer tokens.

 

 At 03:30 this morning and with mixed emotions I set off to Dartford from North Yorkshire with the Golf on the trailer, 4 hours later we arrived, unloaded and the deal was done, I drove home with an empty trailer and pocket full of fifties  but still thinking of what I had done to improve the Golf and the fun myself and my lad had driving it. Hopefully I will see it about in the future.

 

 

 So, tomorrow will bring something new, I am off to look at another car, all will be revealed tomorrow night.  

Tomorrow has brought something new, I am now the owner of a 1986 Peugeot 205 GTI MSA log Booked rally car, it is not the tidiest looking car but the engine, gearbox, diff, brakes are all good, so all the expensive bits are in good order with a recent engine rebuild just a few months ago, it has completed two rallies on this engine.

 

 All I need to do now is spend more money, BARS test, race suit, helmet, HANS device, tyres and an entry fee for the first event.

 

 I may even bring the PUG to How Fast, me and Haydn can enter the rally section in ow Fast

Not sure about that Josh, I only collect it next week, I am still building my garage too, I have so much to do it is unbelievable.   I am looking online now for some bits and pieces, an off side rear wheel arch trim for a 205 for example!

 

 My man cave is coming on well, it now has all roof trusses up and a couple of sheets on the roof too.

 

Just the walls, 20 foot wide X 24 foot long

 

 

 Roof is approx 12 foot high to the ridge incase I drop on a two post lift in the future.

 

 

In the dark after working late last week.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 The place looks like a chapel more than a garage!

Stick it on the trailer! Haha!

Garage progress looks very good indeed mate, I'm envious! My new place has no garage and my drive down the side is slightly too narrow to build one too I think :(

 You are welcome to come up here and use the garage any time mate, once the roof is on I have an 8k wood burner and full flue to go in there too so it should be nice and warm in the winter months  :p

 

 I am also on the look out for a two poster to go in there.

1.9?

Mates got one on 45's and it doesn't half shift.

He bought a rally car as a donor for his road car project so we just swapped everything across bar the cage and bucket seats.

Awesome things they are

It's a 1.6 Si, it has been cammed and also shifts as it is completely stripped out, it also has diff, close ratio box, roll cage and harnesses, seats etc, all log booked and read to go in the forest  :peek:

  Could end bad or it could end good

You'll have a blast, bloody quick little things

I pick it up on Saturday so will see how I get on around here where I live, we have miles of private farm tracks that just happen to be loose surface

I took my mate to fetch his and it was all country lanes. My tfsi vrs couldn't get anywhere near it.

Left me for dead

I don't think I will be using it on the road much, it is purely a competition car, I may even take it to How Fast, it won't win but it will be good fun.

 

 I will get a thread started and some pictures up when I get it on Saturday.
