Title: New Member Grey G40
Post by: dru on June 01, 2011, 10:22:27 pm: Hi all. Just to introduce myself and my G40. Been a few years since I was last in a Polo (had a GT Coupe which i wish i never sold) and its good to be back.

Restoration due to start at the end of the summer.

Cheers for now.

OEM+ restoration... hopefully.

Going to run her through the summer as a second car and take care of any minor issues that might pop up, then full strip, sort the shell, rebuild engine, box etc.....

So hopefully this time next year she should be looking showroom fresh!

Like the sound of your plans, a car as good as this deserves to have an OEM + restoration.
Keep us posted mate.

Nice to see another grey one. I also have a totally stock grey one. Are you going to pull the pinstripes off as i think they they don't help at all.

Post by: dru on July 08, 2011, 11:20:32 pm: Yep pinstrips are going. Only problem with them is, they got lacquered over and touched in with paint, so they wont come of till she get repainted.
