transformation from scrapper to euro 6n polo

[mk4mike]

done some more work to the old gal, getting near to putting engine all back together now.

i managed to get my hands on a gearbox in the end, all free and off a valver.
cleaned it and test fitted it so i could do a little wiring.




i welded up the hole in the floor


been sanding the block down for respraying, cleaning and fitting the spacer plate and flywheel.



and just a few of the engine quickly built up.




just doing some little bits that need doing for the engine.
started sanding alt and steering pump holder ready to polish.


crank seal plate has been cleaned and new seal fitted.


some more polishing on the engine mount to finish off.


been cleaning the steering pump and need to prep the crank pulley for powder coating.


gunna be painting the gearbox and engine block soon so will post an update as soon as these are done
cheers for looking guys.

As a new 6n owner looking for inspiration, you sir are aqt the top of the list.

My Polo is a toy to get me to VW shows (along with a 72 bug and a 86 camper), was thinking Euro route, but it would be nothing compared to yours.


Keep up the good work. Very aweinspiring.
