First time been on the forum for a while, great work mate, bet you were happy when she fired up!!

Car is back at my mates for the finishing touches. Next time I see it, it will be done. 

This is exactly what I have done re: the IC-7. Its a nice bit of gear.

Ian is stepping back from socials for a bit. Hopefully not for too long.

But first outing top 5.

I like that bonnet. Job well done mate.

Yea totally VW look, its just rather than use 1960’s parts they are new.

Hi mate, thanks.  No there is a guy that apparently is a bit of a wizz.  Its going to be based on a brand new aftermarket crank case, and pretty much all of it will be modern tech.  I did consider building it but even though they are simple, there is apparently a bit of an art to building them well.

Hi all, been busy on other projects for a while, but back onto the bus this weekend.  Now working through fully finishing the stuff ready to give it to Cooper for a bit of his fettling then hopefully paint.

Got the fuel filler cap in, the screws broke trying to get them out but ended up drilling them out and fitting M4 rivnuts which worked…[Read more]

What’s happened to Ian?

Sorry all been taking a bit of a break form working on cars.  But should be into again soon.  I like the ease of use in all conditions of injection.

Wow, cool!!!

Cars have been a bit on the back burner of late.  We had a go at leaning up the Calais wheels  a little but i am super happy with them.  Once I get the Kombi off to paint it will free up some shed space to do a few tidy ups.  Do drive a fair bit though, still love it

Sadly not. Still waiting on mates carport to be finished so I can ship it off.

Fingers crossed soon.

For what’s included I reckon that’s cracker value.

The Dub Shop do a fantastic full kit.  Not cheap but has great reviews, and is well proven.

Yep they sure do, I plan on putting the bits and bobs for each in a zip lock bag and tape them to each window.

Also have found a bit of a VW engine/gearbox builder in Bordertown.  Had a long chat to him, I think we have a plan for the motor.  A nice 2210cc unit based around brand new crank case halves, and I am starting to think of EFI and t…[Read more]

And that, as they say, is a wrap. exactly what you want.

Agree 100%.  My kids have both said “ah now we get it, cool”

Wow is it really over week since I checked in on this!!  Mate, congratulations, absolutely first class.  Sounds like all the areas you put the thought into to improve have paid off, again well-done buddy.  Couldn’t agree with Cav more, smashed it out of the park, what an absolute weapon.  At least something positive has come out of this suck bal…[Read more]
