    Great stuff guys, I always wondered about the black one he had stored away, he said it was something special - it's great to see it progressing. The rear bumper looks interesting with the rubstrips, it almost looks like a mk4 one. Could be a Mk3.5 off a cabrio? (IDK what they look like from the back actually).

    I look forward to hopefully seeing you guys at the upcoming dyno day.

    Nah it'd be a custom one, maybe imported from the states or something off a website. The mk3.5's had mk3 rear ends!

    I know that car too. I remember seeing it once and being absolutely stunned to work out it was a mk3! It was awe-inspiring. I didn't know Chris got it!!

    It looks like this type of bumper, or at least with the rubs added - the top is too flat to be the proper 3.5 bar (below).


    Like it's a hybrid or something.

    Cause its actually a mk4 rear and front bar... You can do the conversion however its a fair bit involved, as you need front and rear bars, front guards, reo bar and bonnet. This also means that you will have to change your lights and grille to suit mk4

    Chris's Project VR6- LUC34

    We have the original front end, which has some damage, we took it All Coast Bumpers it is repairable- fibreglass, bumper & grille all in one piece. If anyone wants it for free, just email us to organise collection.
    Thanks for all the kind words of encouragement

    We are keeping both his cars, he wanted to collect one VR6 for ever year, 94-97, we won't part with either of them, but we will use the Black one ( Chris tried to talk us into buying it from him so that he would have both the money and the car-LOL) but he didn't want the front end on it, hence we bought a new front bumper and badge less grille, as he had planned. HAH44 will stay a show car only.
