Nice work Matt, is it gonna have working AC and trip computer/cruise etc?

Yup. It does already because we used the entire loom from the VR6.

Hooked in this arvo and got it all together (nearly)

Need a power steering hose and then we are set.

Took it on a testdrive round the block today.
YES you need power steer in a VR6
OMG its quick, dunno if its because the 3 door is that much lighter, or because its such a fresh motor 123,000ks, but it hammers.
Squealed the wheels in 3rd!

Few little bits left to finish off and some pics in daylight tomorrow

how much would you say this has cost you all up?

[Golf Loon]

how much would you say this has cost you all up?

$1500 for the smashed VR6
$3000 for the 2 Door CL
Heaps of Labour and Time. Probably 100 Hours at least, we had to strip two cars and reassemble one.
Extra Parts include, retrimming headling and buying Seats.
I have a fully equipped workshop at my disposal and trained staff to help.
If I was paying for labour or doing it at home, it would be costly in money, time or both.

I reckon I`d sell it for $8500 if I was in the mood to do so.

wanna swap the finished one for a completely stock 94' vr?

[-Dell-]

I'm pretty sure I know the donor car, where did you find it?? One of my mates from Kensington owns (or owned I guess) a grey late model VR6 with the beige leather, but I haven't spoken to him for a few months. What happened to it?

It's an amazing conversion nevertheless, the colour looks awesome and I bet a 2-door VR6 would get those in the know looking more than once! Thinking about selling it once it's done?
