My big project Recovery MK4 to MK5 Di to TDi

Postby Stule » Wed May 30, 2018 7:31 pm

Hi guys, time has come to weld my mk4 it rotted to hell. I was almost like Kremenko, legs trough floor. Then job every day become more bigger. My truck was slowest in country Bosnia and Herzegowina lol. Then I decided to put TD in, I bought a mk5 2000 63kw. It had a much needed power steering and beautifull dash of mk5. I needed a good donor vehicle with good front end because my was rotten total. I will put a intercooler to. This Pictures was few months before starting this project. On the next days i will put more pictures from start of this project till today, it has not yet finished but i will say about 70% done.
