anyone else thinking its better with that julian and thier new mechanic? forget lepus styling lol , from looking at preview of next one he ruins the golf with scooby style vents etc although it needs it for the intercooler

lozi

me and my mate were instantly discusted by the preview of the styling, up to that point it was looking awsome!

Was gonna ask, was this the car?

No that is not the car its a mk2 golf gti

They do have some cool projects on there, even though they do seem to be general bodgers most of the time. The scooby/golf would be better off left standard on the outside, as would any project like this imo. They always seem to totally ruin the car with the awful styling.

But hey, if thats what jonny vegas wants then thats what he'll get by the looks of it, he did say he wanted 'a bat caaar'!!!

Its just a very cheap and nasty version of the boyd coddington show, but on the complete opposite end of the scale.

The subaru engine & running gear in a mk2 golf isnt a bad idea & could be a good car but i dread to see the final outcome.Whens the next part on anyone know i will have to sky plus it

it is kind of sad as you know lepu will ruin it, left looking standard and mint would be ace

Your spot on heres never heard of subtle styling. Every car chop shop does seems to be a bit of a bodge though they never finished them properly.

Benni

I wouldn't let them install a baby seat into my car.

Funny thing is first time we went down there to see the Golf-aru thing it still looked like a Golf and we all commented on what a nice car it was shaping up to be!!
after we had made the parts we went back down to fit them and it was un recognisable!!
looked more like a 2cv from the front.

The white saph. belongs to Lee the (Bauld one)

hello im lee from chop shop thats my lhd saff in the back ground so u know i have good taste and the lhd escort van is also mine. trust me that car is no lash. up we fitted that running gear proper me an juls wanted to leave it looking like a golf but lepu is a cock and he choped it up to spite us cos we used a measuring system cos we wanted it to drive straight,he thinks it should be done with a ruler and string but we are from the accident repair indestry and we aint cow boys like him and what he dont understand we have laws and mot's. u cant compare chop shop with boyd or chip foose they spend s**t loads on parts and is sponsered ford racing turning up with a brand new v8 in a crate and pre fabricated chassis and we get 7 weeks and 8 grand including paint to build a car we work like dogs to get it done. i have lots of pictures of the build of the cars if u want to see them dont slawter me im just one of u boys with far to many fords and part of n.london passion ford some peole will know my white lhd xr2 turbo.

Welcome to the forum lee! Good seeing what you did to the golf, certainly was gonna be great, until leepu cocked it all up

Rick Astley

Is Bernie as much of a cock in real life as they make him out to be on TV? He seems to think he knows it all to be honest...

Loved the car up until Le-Shit got his hands on it.

the bernie fella makes me laugh, he'll go on about things being quick but the scooby/golf is the only one that has prob ever been quick lol.
performance and mechanic wise it got better once you started lee . i think bernie and leepu should go and leave it to lee and the metal fella lol, building mint sleepers

porksword69

Sorry I'm only taking the mick out of how it looks.
I'm sure all the work you did putting in the running gear was A+.
I know how bloody hard it can be, as I gave my brother a hand building his Fiesta Cosworth rally car.
There was a fair bit of trial and error, especialy as its a gravel car.

Cant you give this Leepu guy some milk and knock him out like Mr T, so you can finish the car without it looking like an abortion.
