MOT PASSED............phew Now off to Tockwith to Track Torque Racing for full wheel and Track Alignment (They have a gizmo that aligns tracking for Porsche racing cars!!!) After rebuilding a car like the cab it "HAS" to be fully re-aligned for tracking as you cannot do it by sight alone. These guys are something else and they want to help any VW owner, the service rates are very, very reasonable. Contact Simon Mifsud simon@tracktorque.co.uk or visit the web www.tracktorque.co.ukHere are some pics of the car during the tracking and alignment process, you can see the computer imagery sensors on each wheel. Wll post up some more pics of the completed car later.

Just a few more shots for the insurance photo's, hope you enjoy. just LOOK at those OE Chrome Wheels..........god they took some finding, nicely shod with 185/65/R15's up front and nice fat 205/65 R15's on its arse......perfect stance. Needs machine polishing next and a few loose ends to sort out like connecting all the heater vent cables, deep sump and oil temperature sender, oil breather oil mist racing catch can, super duper tracker to ward off the pikeys. Deep clean and super wax polish on Friday ready for the show on Sunday. Then the next project........... Enjoy these photo's, more to post up when its had a good clean!!!! Oh....thought I would lob one in from our last trip to ireland in the Bay, great view of Valentia Island from Mannix Point camp site at Caherciveen in Kerry..........enjoy
