  • I have an addiction. numerous projects and toys involved.

    Ok, instead of posting build threads for each of the clunkers I have, I am going to start one thread and attempt to keep it updated with all the shenanigans that I seem to be up to when I'm not overseas.
    My name is Bill, And I am a Caraholic, with a deep passion for all things VW haha. The list in my signature is fairly current as of the moment. I do have a mk4 gti and some other Non euro cars that will remain out of the picture for now.
    Here is an idea of what I have going on at the moment. what is missing is "Buster" which is my VR6 mk2, and My keepsake mk1 convertible that was willed to me when my pops passed away in 2013.





    The black mk3 is a menace, but its also a mk3 so the rockers have had their fair share of weight reduction with help from mother nature and father time. So, the drivetrain is making its way into Buster, and busters High compression Naturally aspirated VR will make its way into my mk1 with the help of a eurowise conversion including their 02A Shift rod conversion. The B3 1.8T Syncro is up for grabs since I procured a Tiguan for daily duties. And the harlequin (#183) looks like its making its way into a lady friends garage in the not so distant future. The HarliCLONE is actually my GF's car. Its from southern Alberta and has been through some fellow enthusiests hands in the past. She seems to like it though. The 1.8T m4 GTi is a car that I picked up for track only duties but it may be off to a new home to make way for another toy (Cough foxbody cough). I am trying to get out to as many shows, meets and coffee hang outs as I can when I am home. I hope to see you guys around.

    Oh and I forgot to mention the benz, I still have it, someone asked me a few days back, it is sitting in my garage, the wheels on it are for sale. I am going back to a smaller, wider wheel/tire combo so it will lay frame when its aired out.

              Awesome collection Bill. I only wish I could have the storage space that you have, however i'm sure that would cost alot more than i'd like it to (more car expenses that is lol). Also, I will always have a soft spot for your old MK2 stormtrooper. Miss that car!

                I found this pic of Buster. He is under the knife right now. Fender flares of the "large" variety and a bit more gusto when the engine swap is done. New seats are ready too. More pics of the fun when I get home next weekend.

                  And here is the Mk1, My dad kept it in great shape for all the years that he had it. And when my mom passed it on to me last year it was bone stock. I made it into the car my Pops always dreamed of...... Just a little lower than what he liked haha.

                            So, I got back to Canada on Friday. Picked up my new to me Tiguan on Saturday. I got software done before I picked it up (apr stage 1). Installed Audi r8 coils and new plugs, and next up is the mod shack intake. And later this week coilovers and I will install the hitch and module
