New here

[Pat Kelly]

Hi all, I have being following the VW scene over here in Ireland for a while now and helped a friend with some work on his 1980 starlet, now I have purchased his 1976 RA 23 from him and the build is beginning, although its an Australian car the Irish climate ( imported in 2005 ) and her age has not being too kind to the body work, I was reading some interesting conversions/work carried out on this site and have taken some inspiration from them, so its a 1JZ and a R154 gear box for starts for the running (supra parts) but I guess I must fix all the rot first. I will start a build thread to show my progress and will have lots of questions.

Thanks for the help in advance.
Pat.
