Pick this up next week, not really sure where I will be going with it but should be fun! 1.8td as it stands but i'm sure things will change once my Saph is completed

Cooooool as foook. Get it sitting on its ass and a nice set of wheels.

visa_broke

yeah definately needs lowering but it looks like a good base

Rear tubs are usually fooked one way or the other, yours looks great and hard to find.
I'd probably keep it as it is or go for 24v cossie and uprated running gear.

Very nice, would love to have one, but these things are hard to find.

Have fun with it.

Picked her up on Saturday, already ordered lots of bits to get her right and got the front end looking propa!!

gcfcos

Looking sweet mate,
If that came up behind u you would swear it was a saph Cossie! What's your future plans for it?

Already looking good.

phillgti

Not too sure on engine at the moment, will just turn the pump and boost up for now.

I want to mint the underneath first, it feels very loose both front and rear. Lowering the rear asap too. Just painting some lattices for it at the moment

gcfcos

Awesome mate. There's a turbo diesel one that goes to one of our local meets and he's tuned that quite well and apparently goes very well too

phillgti

Yeah, if I can get around 100bhp that will do for now, its only going to pull my trials bike about so don't need too much atm

fatboy billy

Looks very tidy! A spot of lowering and the lattices will totally transform it would love one of these to ride around in as a daily

The back wheels will look lost in the arches. Are you using a capri rear axle??

phillgti

No Glenn, I will be using wheel adaptors on the rear so it will have an extra 20mm.

Hopefully some work will take place this weekend

phillgti

Also got capri multi leaf springs which I am taking a leaf out of and 2 inch lowering blocks

phillgti

Quite a bit been going on with this over the last couple of weeks, I added the capri multi-leaf springs, changed all rear bushes to poly and added the lowering blocks although ended up taking these out as it was just too low to carry anything.

Also added rear wheel adapters and cossie rims - its coming along now

Came across a cheap rebuilt 1.8td which I am now in the process of fitting, also new clutch and spigot bearing, crank seal, oil filter & glow plugs

replaced the fuel filter housing as it was leaking

Hopefully will look at upping the boost and fueling a bit once I am back up and running

also painted the bed in black as it was very scruffy

gcfcos

That looks awesome lowered on the lattice wheels mate

phillgti

cheers mate

got the engine up and running yesterday but the water pump was squealing so ordered a new one which is turning up today so should be back on the road later
