Lookin' good Josh. Let me know when you want to pick up the new shell. Maybe we can make a weekend out of it by taking it down to the farm and then start stripping the mk4 car.

Not a bad idea. I will try to keep it clean for as long as possible by keeping the old shell alive. The upside of the incredible cage and paint is that it makes a great promotional vehicle and show-car to try to get some additional sponsorship money from.

good color choice, the silver looks good.

First time I saw silver interiors was at a formula D practice/normal thursday drift day when the pros came out to run with the locals. Rhys Millen's cars had silver interiors, and with the blue on the outside, they looked sharp.

Very nice Josh! I think that a TDI diesel Golf is the way to go. All that torque makes up for shit gear spacing. Are you going to try to hack the engine managment?

Mk. II is a great light shell, and obviously you all know how to pedal it, but have you thought about a curvier body on the sponsorship side?
