So, regardless if you've been following my build thread or not, I'm in a situation at this moment in time.
In a nut shell, Ive basically got a shell that's solid but missing pretty much everything else.
I don't want to be spending out aload of money on unnecessary stuff etc as trying to buy a new home and a roof over my head is more important at the minute.
Anyway, I refused to give up as that's just not in my nature.
Now, I will get this car built and bloody drive it even if it kills me!
I'm thinking, cheapest possible way to get it back in one piece and drivable, I don't care if it looks like a shed or thrown together at this point, I just know summer on its way and I wanna drive the bloody thing.
So, options are, look at another possible cheap engine conversion, ie mk4 golf set up? Or maybe TT Quattro set up? Buy them pretty cheap high mileage? I have no worries about cutting my 5 up to make them work and welding additional supporting requirements.
Or throwing in another C1J and efi it with the usual T25, 2.5 inch exhaust, 285 cam with front mount?
Better still, anyone who got anything they fancy giving away for free to help build this thing back up, ie C1J engine, g/box, brakes etc etc.
Any ideas or suggestions welcome!!!
