Managed to grab a couple of hours and polybushed the tca, roll bar mounts and droplinks. I'm picking up some rs4s on saturday. And i have a four branch on its way to me next week Not sure if I'm going to just paint it up or paint it and heatwrap it. Having the k&n on it may be benifical to try and reduce the underbonnet temps where possible. Do also have a mk4 grill to try on it too

Void bushes, I know nothing about them. But I see an opportunity for someone. A well engineered, bolt in solution would make money surely?? Anyway. I'm enjoying the progress. And the cam cover is a bit hmmmmmm....

I'm still not 100% sold on the cam cover but its tidier than it was so will do for. I may blast it off and do it body colour when i do the respray. I will do poly bushes throughout so they are easier to fit, unless i decide to go big power and change the axle, then ill go rose joints and adjustable arms

It will do for now. Mk4 grill turned up today so a quick lick of plasticote and lobbed it on. Bit of a nod to the 2.0s look I'm aiming for that only came in the mk4

Manifold arrived today. Quick clean up and a spot of vht. Euros didnt have the black that I'd ordered, no surprise there! So went for silver over red or blue that they had. Not sure if I should heat wrap it or not, heat spots, water traps and what have you.

don't look too bad in the pic, but they are 1974 jps capri wheels so were once wearing gold inserts. Paint is old, and not great
