Project Cordy revived....

[Icecavern]

Well I've managed to sort out some finances for building the Cordy ( and keep the R ) so the project can continue

Progress might be down to nill for the next month or so as I have to get a my Leon up to competition standard ICE wise and then I'll start work on the Cordy properly again. Means the car will be hitting the shows next year rather than this year but hopefully it'll be worth the wait

You know it makes sense !!!!

I'm sure that you'll make it better car now that you're going to have a longer period to get it built, rather than rushing it to get it ready for this year !!!

Agreed - top new mate

 

[Icecavern]

Yeah was chatting to a mate yesterday and he has welders and metal work tools so we can do most of the metal work at his place bit by bit and that will save a bit of cash too

Sorting out the list of parts for sale today on the site to raise funds

Great news!!

Only problem is now I'm thinkign about the engine again...

Worried the VR6 might be too heavy and that I should stick with 20vt power, but 20vt engines are a lot more expensive grrrr decisions decisions...

 

[andyj]

Mk2 Golf VR6 Conversions are very driveable by all accounts. Apparently the VR6 lump is only about 25kg heavier than the 2.0 16v block.

All you'd need are some high rated springs and you'll be fine

And you can't beat the sound of a VR at full chat

Also, you can S/C or T/C the VR at a later date....
