The week sees Helga leave home the second time for some more body work, while i have a space I the garage I have managed to find me a good engine for her 2.0 type 4 from an early wedge , I will swap over the parts from my blitzed 1700 and slot it in on here return .






I have changed the clutch and flywheel over so it mates with our early gearbox.

Next I will change over the air box, cylinder head tin and fit the alternator. More pictures to follow soon.
 
Cheers Matt. I don't think Iil be nowhere near ready as I am really busy at work next week and I have a little trip planned for Jill next weekend.

Thanks anyway bud I will take you up on your offer if you don't mind when I am ready to go.
 
Here is a little update , roof now in colour and side panels repaired , should be back at home within the next fortnight
 
We're waiting too long for an update! ;) The roof looks porn! What is with the rest of the body? Same colour?
Cheers
Reto
 
The rest of the body will be white with detailed wheels and a red interior , will try to keep the update a little more regular, Helga the porn bus LOL
 
Looking good Pete, like that metal flake red, looking at that I'd say the rims are going to proper Carlos Fandango.
