Rebirth 3: The continuation of project OI
« on: January 31, 2012, 12:37:14 PM »
Watch this Space....

Will be picking up the beast soon.

Details Ideas and Pictures to Follow

So i have purchased project OI from hansy

Hopefully i can breathe some life into this bad boy once more

I have time to think at the moment due to dislocating my shoulder last week but the two though processes at the moment are something like this


Possibility 1
TRACK CAR
Stripped caged raw and ready to hit the track

possibility 2
Road Car
MkIII interior transplant
With aircon nice wheels and either a vr6 or the existing ABF

not to sure yet

I have to sell my MPS before this project will be able to gain any serious traction

Track car is cool but unless you are dedicated to Motorsport go with option 2 which is what I would do.

What do you need from a Mk3? Do you want a whole car to pick from, or do you just want to find a car at a wrecker where you can get what you need?
Because if option 2, there are always some Mk3's dotted around the Pick A Parts. There are two out at Avondale atm

nice road car, it's a great color and a really nice base to start from. I have to agree with Vert on the track car scenario...

24v VR6 and 6 speed with all Mk3 5 stud running gear would be my vote!

They put the VR6 in the Corrado which is a MK2 chassis so it should be a problem.
