Sorry in advance, all the photos in this thread are going to disappear. :( Nice to see you're still around, hopefully as long as the software works as it should, all external images are cached, so we keep a local copy which means they shouldn't disappear.

Have you still got your mk3 and have you done much to it recently. I assume you have copies of all the photos yourself . I have most of them. But many of the in-progress photos were posted at the time then discarded. Work on PAL rarely stops... here is the last 12 months or so: Engine rebuild after losing the water pump belt (and having a truck behind me so couldn't stop): Complete gearbox rebuild with tasty rally ratios: Replaced the Tex mirrors with genuine Mk4 door mirrors: I abandoned the Wellers as I struggled to get them balanced well enough, especially when towing. I went back my Superlite replicas, powder coated white: Having cooked on hot days a couple of times, the polycarb rally windows were replaced with original door drop glass: Fitted a genuine South African bonnet as the fibreglass Aussie one warped: After the "Minder" Capri caught fire, MarkyMark came to help and we finally finished the engine bay fire extinguisher system: The millboard door cards got kind of saggy, so I made these custom door cards from checker-plate alloy: Edited June 5, 2021 by Danish 4 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Thanks for the other kind comments. 1 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
wolfrace 116 Posted June 12, 2021 Looking good :) I haven't posted on here for about a year either I guess, logged in and saw your post. :) I wonder also how many build threads have gone due to photobucket after they started charging for the service. Joe was over today for a bit of welding/bacon butty and beer. good to get a bit of solid metal in it. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
