Its HOME!!!

A BIG THANK YOU to Lee @ Easy Move recovery who shifted it for me last night at 11:00pm!!

http://www.easymoverecovery.co.uk

If i cant get the items i have had stolen back, then my shopping list is as follows..

1) Compressor
2) Airtank
3) 4 x quick release solenoids
4) loads of pipes and fittings
5) 4 new tyres
6) road tax
7) £80 reg plate transfer fee
8) 1 years insurance

I have the following items to fit to it

1) chequre plate style bed liner
2) sliding rear window
3) rear roll pan to tidy the back end up
4) twin oval exhaust
5) front chrome grill
6) retro stereo
7) cleaned fuel tank
8) new fuel lines
9) electric fuel pump

And i have to paint the following

1) wheels (colour undecided)
2) rear roll pan (its currently white)

Lots to do, but its at my house now, and the weather is getting better, so ill plod along and hopefully (funds permitting) it might make its first proper appearance at nationals Icon_smile

RE: *Member* Olstars 1989 Volkswagen Caddy

right, major update time!

disco stu rang me and said he was coming round with a grinder, welder, tools and buzzer Icon_biggrin

i went to fetch him and we all piled up to my house to attack the caddy!!



i didnt get many progress pics, as we were all cracking on, but buzzer and stu managed to fit my exhaust, fuel tank, new pump etc...

AND SHE STARTED UP!!

Ok, not first time, but second!

And after not being run for years i was just astonished!

http://www.maxxd.tv/play.php?vid=120

if you look at the vid you can see the pipe going into that petrol can cos at that time we haddnt got it plumbed into the tank Icon_lol and excuse the wires we are still needing to tidy all that up ad wire the relay in..

BUT IT WORKS!!! ARGG!!!

i need a few things now but not many, then tax, insurance.. and NATIONALS!!

woo!



A BIG thanks to buzzer, and disco stu for being total scrapheap challenge legends!!! Icon_biggrin Icon_lol
